HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 525, 7013 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 525, 7013 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 525, 7013 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 525, 7013 is 1.
HCF(525, 7013) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 525, 7013 is 1.
Step 1: Since 7013 > 525, we apply the division lemma to 7013 and 525, to get
7013 = 525 x 13 + 188
Step 2: Since the reminder 525 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 188 and 525, to get
525 = 188 x 2 + 149
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 188 and the new remainder 149, and apply the division lemma to get
188 = 149 x 1 + 39
We consider the new divisor 149 and the new remainder 39,and apply the division lemma to get
149 = 39 x 3 + 32
We consider the new divisor 39 and the new remainder 32,and apply the division lemma to get
39 = 32 x 1 + 7
We consider the new divisor 32 and the new remainder 7,and apply the division lemma to get
32 = 7 x 4 + 4
We consider the new divisor 7 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
7 = 4 x 1 + 3
We consider the new divisor 4 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
4 = 3 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 3 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
3 = 1 x 3 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 525 and 7013 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(4,3) = HCF(7,4) = HCF(32,7) = HCF(39,32) = HCF(149,39) = HCF(188,149) = HCF(525,188) = HCF(7013,525) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
