HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 3583, 2506, 64003 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 3583, 2506, 64003 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 3583, 2506, 64003 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 3583, 2506, 64003 is 1.
HCF(3583, 2506, 64003) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 3583, 2506, 64003 is 1.
Step 1: Since 3583 > 2506, we apply the division lemma to 3583 and 2506, to get
3583 = 2506 x 1 + 1077
Step 2: Since the reminder 2506 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1077 and 2506, to get
2506 = 1077 x 2 + 352
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 1077 and the new remainder 352, and apply the division lemma to get
1077 = 352 x 3 + 21
We consider the new divisor 352 and the new remainder 21,and apply the division lemma to get
352 = 21 x 16 + 16
We consider the new divisor 21 and the new remainder 16,and apply the division lemma to get
21 = 16 x 1 + 5
We consider the new divisor 16 and the new remainder 5,and apply the division lemma to get
16 = 5 x 3 + 1
We consider the new divisor 5 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
5 = 1 x 5 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 3583 and 2506 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(5,1) = HCF(16,5) = HCF(21,16) = HCF(352,21) = HCF(1077,352) = HCF(2506,1077) = HCF(3583,2506) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 64003 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 64003 and 1, to get
64003 = 1 x 64003 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 64003 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(64003,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
