HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 3105, 4585, 44015 i.e. 5 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 3105, 4585, 44015 is 5 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 3105, 4585, 44015 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 3105, 4585, 44015 is 5.
HCF(3105, 4585, 44015) = 5
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 3105, 4585, 44015 is 5.
Step 1: Since 4585 > 3105, we apply the division lemma to 4585 and 3105, to get
4585 = 3105 x 1 + 1480
Step 2: Since the reminder 3105 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1480 and 3105, to get
3105 = 1480 x 2 + 145
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 1480 and the new remainder 145, and apply the division lemma to get
1480 = 145 x 10 + 30
We consider the new divisor 145 and the new remainder 30,and apply the division lemma to get
145 = 30 x 4 + 25
We consider the new divisor 30 and the new remainder 25,and apply the division lemma to get
30 = 25 x 1 + 5
We consider the new divisor 25 and the new remainder 5,and apply the division lemma to get
25 = 5 x 5 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 5, the HCF of 3105 and 4585 is 5
Notice that 5 = HCF(25,5) = HCF(30,25) = HCF(145,30) = HCF(1480,145) = HCF(3105,1480) = HCF(4585,3105) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 44015 > 5, we apply the division lemma to 44015 and 5, to get
44015 = 5 x 8803 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 5, the HCF of 5 and 44015 is 5
Notice that 5 = HCF(44015,5) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
