HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 4314, 5291 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 4314, 5291 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 4314, 5291 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 4314, 5291 is 1.
HCF(4314, 5291) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 4314, 5291 is 1.
Step 1: Since 5291 > 4314, we apply the division lemma to 5291 and 4314, to get
5291 = 4314 x 1 + 977
Step 2: Since the reminder 4314 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 977 and 4314, to get
4314 = 977 x 4 + 406
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 977 and the new remainder 406, and apply the division lemma to get
977 = 406 x 2 + 165
We consider the new divisor 406 and the new remainder 165,and apply the division lemma to get
406 = 165 x 2 + 76
We consider the new divisor 165 and the new remainder 76,and apply the division lemma to get
165 = 76 x 2 + 13
We consider the new divisor 76 and the new remainder 13,and apply the division lemma to get
76 = 13 x 5 + 11
We consider the new divisor 13 and the new remainder 11,and apply the division lemma to get
13 = 11 x 1 + 2
We consider the new divisor 11 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
11 = 2 x 5 + 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 4314 and 5291 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(11,2) = HCF(13,11) = HCF(76,13) = HCF(165,76) = HCF(406,165) = HCF(977,406) = HCF(4314,977) = HCF(5291,4314) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
