HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 202, 48195 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 202, 48195 is 1 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 202, 48195 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 202, 48195 is 1.
HCF(202, 48195) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 202, 48195 is 1.
Step 1: Since 48195 > 202, we apply the division lemma to 48195 and 202, to get
48195 = 202 x 238 + 119
Step 2: Since the reminder 202 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 119 and 202, to get
202 = 119 x 1 + 83
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 119 and the new remainder 83, and apply the division lemma to get
119 = 83 x 1 + 36
We consider the new divisor 83 and the new remainder 36,and apply the division lemma to get
83 = 36 x 2 + 11
We consider the new divisor 36 and the new remainder 11,and apply the division lemma to get
36 = 11 x 3 + 3
We consider the new divisor 11 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
11 = 3 x 3 + 2
We consider the new divisor 3 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
3 = 2 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 2 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
2 = 1 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 202 and 48195 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(3,2) = HCF(11,3) = HCF(36,11) = HCF(83,36) = HCF(119,83) = HCF(202,119) = HCF(48195,202) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
