HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 329, 96082 i.e. 7 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 329, 96082 is 7 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 329, 96082 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 329, 96082 is 7.
HCF(329, 96082) = 7
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 329, 96082 is 7.
Step 1: Since 96082 > 329, we apply the division lemma to 96082 and 329, to get
96082 = 329 x 292 + 14
Step 2: Since the reminder 329 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 14 and 329, to get
329 = 14 x 23 + 7
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 14 and the new remainder 7, and apply the division lemma to get
14 = 7 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 7, the HCF of 329 and 96082 is 7
Notice that 7 = HCF(14,7) = HCF(329,14) = HCF(96082,329) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
Answer: Euclid's Division Algorithm is a technique to compute the Highest Common Factor (HCF) of given positive integers.
2. what is the HCF of 329, 96082?
Answer: HCF of 329, 96082 is 7 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 329, 96082 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 329, 96082 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
