HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 2817, 8094, 99130 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 2817, 8094, 99130 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 2817, 8094, 99130 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 2817, 8094, 99130 is 1.
HCF(2817, 8094, 99130) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 2817, 8094, 99130 is 1.
Step 1: Since 8094 > 2817, we apply the division lemma to 8094 and 2817, to get
8094 = 2817 x 2 + 2460
Step 2: Since the reminder 2817 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 2460 and 2817, to get
2817 = 2460 x 1 + 357
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 2460 and the new remainder 357, and apply the division lemma to get
2460 = 357 x 6 + 318
We consider the new divisor 357 and the new remainder 318,and apply the division lemma to get
357 = 318 x 1 + 39
We consider the new divisor 318 and the new remainder 39,and apply the division lemma to get
318 = 39 x 8 + 6
We consider the new divisor 39 and the new remainder 6,and apply the division lemma to get
39 = 6 x 6 + 3
We consider the new divisor 6 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
6 = 3 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 3, the HCF of 2817 and 8094 is 3
Notice that 3 = HCF(6,3) = HCF(39,6) = HCF(318,39) = HCF(357,318) = HCF(2460,357) = HCF(2817,2460) = HCF(8094,2817) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 99130 > 3, we apply the division lemma to 99130 and 3, to get
99130 = 3 x 33043 + 1
Step 2: Since the reminder 3 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1 and 3, to get
3 = 1 x 3 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 3 and 99130 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(99130,3) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
