HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 195, 5564 i.e. 13 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 195, 5564 is 13 the largest number which exactly divides all the numbers i.e. where the remainder is zero. Let us get into the working of this example.
Consider we have numbers 195, 5564 and we need to find the HCF of these numbers. To do so, we need to choose the largest integer first and then as per Euclid's Division Lemma a = bq + r where 0 ≤ r ≤ b
Highest common factor (HCF) of 195, 5564 is 13.
HCF(195, 5564) = 13
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 195, 5564 is 13.
Step 1: Since 5564 > 195, we apply the division lemma to 5564 and 195, to get
5564 = 195 x 28 + 104
Step 2: Since the reminder 195 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 104 and 195, to get
195 = 104 x 1 + 91
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 104 and the new remainder 91, and apply the division lemma to get
104 = 91 x 1 + 13
We consider the new divisor 91 and the new remainder 13, and apply the division lemma to get
91 = 13 x 7 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 13, the HCF of 195 and 5564 is 13
Notice that 13 = HCF(91,13) = HCF(104,91) = HCF(195,104) = HCF(5564,195) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?

2. what is the HCF of 195, 5564?
Answer: HCF of 195, 5564 is 13 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 195, 5564 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 195, 5564 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
