HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 5323, 9115 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 5323, 9115 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 5323, 9115 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 5323, 9115 is 1.
HCF(5323, 9115) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 5323, 9115 is 1.
Step 1: Since 9115 > 5323, we apply the division lemma to 9115 and 5323, to get
9115 = 5323 x 1 + 3792
Step 2: Since the reminder 5323 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 3792 and 5323, to get
5323 = 3792 x 1 + 1531
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 3792 and the new remainder 1531, and apply the division lemma to get
3792 = 1531 x 2 + 730
We consider the new divisor 1531 and the new remainder 730,and apply the division lemma to get
1531 = 730 x 2 + 71
We consider the new divisor 730 and the new remainder 71,and apply the division lemma to get
730 = 71 x 10 + 20
We consider the new divisor 71 and the new remainder 20,and apply the division lemma to get
71 = 20 x 3 + 11
We consider the new divisor 20 and the new remainder 11,and apply the division lemma to get
20 = 11 x 1 + 9
We consider the new divisor 11 and the new remainder 9,and apply the division lemma to get
11 = 9 x 1 + 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 5323 and 9115 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(9,2) = HCF(11,9) = HCF(20,11) = HCF(71,20) = HCF(730,71) = HCF(1531,730) = HCF(3792,1531) = HCF(5323,3792) = HCF(9115,5323) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
