HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 5349, 4196 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 5349, 4196 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 5349, 4196 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 5349, 4196 is 1.
HCF(5349, 4196) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 5349, 4196 is 1.
Step 1: Since 5349 > 4196, we apply the division lemma to 5349 and 4196, to get
5349 = 4196 x 1 + 1153
Step 2: Since the reminder 4196 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1153 and 4196, to get
4196 = 1153 x 3 + 737
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 1153 and the new remainder 737, and apply the division lemma to get
1153 = 737 x 1 + 416
We consider the new divisor 737 and the new remainder 416,and apply the division lemma to get
737 = 416 x 1 + 321
We consider the new divisor 416 and the new remainder 321,and apply the division lemma to get
416 = 321 x 1 + 95
We consider the new divisor 321 and the new remainder 95,and apply the division lemma to get
321 = 95 x 3 + 36
We consider the new divisor 95 and the new remainder 36,and apply the division lemma to get
95 = 36 x 2 + 23
We consider the new divisor 36 and the new remainder 23,and apply the division lemma to get
36 = 23 x 1 + 13
We consider the new divisor 23 and the new remainder 13,and apply the division lemma to get
23 = 13 x 1 + 10
We consider the new divisor 13 and the new remainder 10,and apply the division lemma to get
13 = 10 x 1 + 3
We consider the new divisor 10 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
10 = 3 x 3 + 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 5349 and 4196 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(10,3) = HCF(13,10) = HCF(23,13) = HCF(36,23) = HCF(95,36) = HCF(321,95) = HCF(416,321) = HCF(737,416) = HCF(1153,737) = HCF(4196,1153) = HCF(5349,4196) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
