HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 3054, 5653, 30150 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 3054, 5653, 30150 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 3054, 5653, 30150 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 3054, 5653, 30150 is 1.
HCF(3054, 5653, 30150) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 3054, 5653, 30150 is 1.
Step 1: Since 5653 > 3054, we apply the division lemma to 5653 and 3054, to get
5653 = 3054 x 1 + 2599
Step 2: Since the reminder 3054 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 2599 and 3054, to get
3054 = 2599 x 1 + 455
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 2599 and the new remainder 455, and apply the division lemma to get
2599 = 455 x 5 + 324
We consider the new divisor 455 and the new remainder 324,and apply the division lemma to get
455 = 324 x 1 + 131
We consider the new divisor 324 and the new remainder 131,and apply the division lemma to get
324 = 131 x 2 + 62
We consider the new divisor 131 and the new remainder 62,and apply the division lemma to get
131 = 62 x 2 + 7
We consider the new divisor 62 and the new remainder 7,and apply the division lemma to get
62 = 7 x 8 + 6
We consider the new divisor 7 and the new remainder 6,and apply the division lemma to get
7 = 6 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 6 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
6 = 1 x 6 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 3054 and 5653 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(6,1) = HCF(7,6) = HCF(62,7) = HCF(131,62) = HCF(324,131) = HCF(455,324) = HCF(2599,455) = HCF(3054,2599) = HCF(5653,3054) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 30150 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 30150 and 1, to get
30150 = 1 x 30150 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 30150 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(30150,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
