HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 3589, 2282 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 3589, 2282 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 3589, 2282 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 3589, 2282 is 1.
HCF(3589, 2282) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 3589, 2282 is 1.
Step 1: Since 3589 > 2282, we apply the division lemma to 3589 and 2282, to get
3589 = 2282 x 1 + 1307
Step 2: Since the reminder 2282 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1307 and 2282, to get
2282 = 1307 x 1 + 975
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 1307 and the new remainder 975, and apply the division lemma to get
1307 = 975 x 1 + 332
We consider the new divisor 975 and the new remainder 332,and apply the division lemma to get
975 = 332 x 2 + 311
We consider the new divisor 332 and the new remainder 311,and apply the division lemma to get
332 = 311 x 1 + 21
We consider the new divisor 311 and the new remainder 21,and apply the division lemma to get
311 = 21 x 14 + 17
We consider the new divisor 21 and the new remainder 17,and apply the division lemma to get
21 = 17 x 1 + 4
We consider the new divisor 17 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
17 = 4 x 4 + 1
We consider the new divisor 4 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
4 = 1 x 4 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 3589 and 2282 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(4,1) = HCF(17,4) = HCF(21,17) = HCF(311,21) = HCF(332,311) = HCF(975,332) = HCF(1307,975) = HCF(2282,1307) = HCF(3589,2282) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
