HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 3808, 5419, 90005 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 3808, 5419, 90005 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 3808, 5419, 90005 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 3808, 5419, 90005 is 1.
HCF(3808, 5419, 90005) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 3808, 5419, 90005 is 1.
Step 1: Since 5419 > 3808, we apply the division lemma to 5419 and 3808, to get
5419 = 3808 x 1 + 1611
Step 2: Since the reminder 3808 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1611 and 3808, to get
3808 = 1611 x 2 + 586
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 1611 and the new remainder 586, and apply the division lemma to get
1611 = 586 x 2 + 439
We consider the new divisor 586 and the new remainder 439,and apply the division lemma to get
586 = 439 x 1 + 147
We consider the new divisor 439 and the new remainder 147,and apply the division lemma to get
439 = 147 x 2 + 145
We consider the new divisor 147 and the new remainder 145,and apply the division lemma to get
147 = 145 x 1 + 2
We consider the new divisor 145 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
145 = 2 x 72 + 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 3808 and 5419 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(145,2) = HCF(147,145) = HCF(439,147) = HCF(586,439) = HCF(1611,586) = HCF(3808,1611) = HCF(5419,3808) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 90005 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 90005 and 1, to get
90005 = 1 x 90005 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 90005 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(90005,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
