HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 3110, 8161, 30225 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 3110, 8161, 30225 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 3110, 8161, 30225 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 3110, 8161, 30225 is 1.
HCF(3110, 8161, 30225) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 3110, 8161, 30225 is 1.
Step 1: Since 8161 > 3110, we apply the division lemma to 8161 and 3110, to get
8161 = 3110 x 2 + 1941
Step 2: Since the reminder 3110 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1941 and 3110, to get
3110 = 1941 x 1 + 1169
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 1941 and the new remainder 1169, and apply the division lemma to get
1941 = 1169 x 1 + 772
We consider the new divisor 1169 and the new remainder 772,and apply the division lemma to get
1169 = 772 x 1 + 397
We consider the new divisor 772 and the new remainder 397,and apply the division lemma to get
772 = 397 x 1 + 375
We consider the new divisor 397 and the new remainder 375,and apply the division lemma to get
397 = 375 x 1 + 22
We consider the new divisor 375 and the new remainder 22,and apply the division lemma to get
375 = 22 x 17 + 1
We consider the new divisor 22 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
22 = 1 x 22 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 3110 and 8161 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(22,1) = HCF(375,22) = HCF(397,375) = HCF(772,397) = HCF(1169,772) = HCF(1941,1169) = HCF(3110,1941) = HCF(8161,3110) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 30225 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 30225 and 1, to get
30225 = 1 x 30225 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 30225 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(30225,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
