HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 4113, 7383, 52223 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 4113, 7383, 52223 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 4113, 7383, 52223 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 4113, 7383, 52223 is 1.
HCF(4113, 7383, 52223) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 4113, 7383, 52223 is 1.
Step 1: Since 7383 > 4113, we apply the division lemma to 7383 and 4113, to get
7383 = 4113 x 1 + 3270
Step 2: Since the reminder 4113 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 3270 and 4113, to get
4113 = 3270 x 1 + 843
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 3270 and the new remainder 843, and apply the division lemma to get
3270 = 843 x 3 + 741
We consider the new divisor 843 and the new remainder 741,and apply the division lemma to get
843 = 741 x 1 + 102
We consider the new divisor 741 and the new remainder 102,and apply the division lemma to get
741 = 102 x 7 + 27
We consider the new divisor 102 and the new remainder 27,and apply the division lemma to get
102 = 27 x 3 + 21
We consider the new divisor 27 and the new remainder 21,and apply the division lemma to get
27 = 21 x 1 + 6
We consider the new divisor 21 and the new remainder 6,and apply the division lemma to get
21 = 6 x 3 + 3
We consider the new divisor 6 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
6 = 3 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 3, the HCF of 4113 and 7383 is 3
Notice that 3 = HCF(6,3) = HCF(21,6) = HCF(27,21) = HCF(102,27) = HCF(741,102) = HCF(843,741) = HCF(3270,843) = HCF(4113,3270) = HCF(7383,4113) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 52223 > 3, we apply the division lemma to 52223 and 3, to get
52223 = 3 x 17407 + 2
Step 2: Since the reminder 3 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 2 and 3, to get
3 = 2 x 1 + 1
Step 3: 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 3 and 52223 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(3,2) = HCF(52223,3) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
