HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 3895, 5533 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 3895, 5533 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 3895, 5533 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 3895, 5533 is 1.
HCF(3895, 5533) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 3895, 5533 is 1.
Step 1: Since 5533 > 3895, we apply the division lemma to 5533 and 3895, to get
5533 = 3895 x 1 + 1638
Step 2: Since the reminder 3895 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1638 and 3895, to get
3895 = 1638 x 2 + 619
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 1638 and the new remainder 619, and apply the division lemma to get
1638 = 619 x 2 + 400
We consider the new divisor 619 and the new remainder 400,and apply the division lemma to get
619 = 400 x 1 + 219
We consider the new divisor 400 and the new remainder 219,and apply the division lemma to get
400 = 219 x 1 + 181
We consider the new divisor 219 and the new remainder 181,and apply the division lemma to get
219 = 181 x 1 + 38
We consider the new divisor 181 and the new remainder 38,and apply the division lemma to get
181 = 38 x 4 + 29
We consider the new divisor 38 and the new remainder 29,and apply the division lemma to get
38 = 29 x 1 + 9
We consider the new divisor 29 and the new remainder 9,and apply the division lemma to get
29 = 9 x 3 + 2
We consider the new divisor 9 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
9 = 2 x 4 + 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 3895 and 5533 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(9,2) = HCF(29,9) = HCF(38,29) = HCF(181,38) = HCF(219,181) = HCF(400,219) = HCF(619,400) = HCF(1638,619) = HCF(3895,1638) = HCF(5533,3895) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
