HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 3108, 4367 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 3108, 4367 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 3108, 4367 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 3108, 4367 is 1.
HCF(3108, 4367) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 3108, 4367 is 1.
Step 1: Since 4367 > 3108, we apply the division lemma to 4367 and 3108, to get
4367 = 3108 x 1 + 1259
Step 2: Since the reminder 3108 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1259 and 3108, to get
3108 = 1259 x 2 + 590
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 1259 and the new remainder 590, and apply the division lemma to get
1259 = 590 x 2 + 79
We consider the new divisor 590 and the new remainder 79,and apply the division lemma to get
590 = 79 x 7 + 37
We consider the new divisor 79 and the new remainder 37,and apply the division lemma to get
79 = 37 x 2 + 5
We consider the new divisor 37 and the new remainder 5,and apply the division lemma to get
37 = 5 x 7 + 2
We consider the new divisor 5 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
5 = 2 x 2 + 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 3108 and 4367 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(5,2) = HCF(37,5) = HCF(79,37) = HCF(590,79) = HCF(1259,590) = HCF(3108,1259) = HCF(4367,3108) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
