HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 3211, 4464 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 3211, 4464 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 3211, 4464 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 3211, 4464 is 1.
HCF(3211, 4464) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 3211, 4464 is 1.
Step 1: Since 4464 > 3211, we apply the division lemma to 4464 and 3211, to get
4464 = 3211 x 1 + 1253
Step 2: Since the reminder 3211 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1253 and 3211, to get
3211 = 1253 x 2 + 705
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 1253 and the new remainder 705, and apply the division lemma to get
1253 = 705 x 1 + 548
We consider the new divisor 705 and the new remainder 548,and apply the division lemma to get
705 = 548 x 1 + 157
We consider the new divisor 548 and the new remainder 157,and apply the division lemma to get
548 = 157 x 3 + 77
We consider the new divisor 157 and the new remainder 77,and apply the division lemma to get
157 = 77 x 2 + 3
We consider the new divisor 77 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
77 = 3 x 25 + 2
We consider the new divisor 3 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
3 = 2 x 1 + 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 3211 and 4464 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(3,2) = HCF(77,3) = HCF(157,77) = HCF(548,157) = HCF(705,548) = HCF(1253,705) = HCF(3211,1253) = HCF(4464,3211) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
