HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 5665, 9638 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 5665, 9638 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 5665, 9638 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 5665, 9638 is 1.
HCF(5665, 9638) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 5665, 9638 is 1.
Step 1: Since 9638 > 5665, we apply the division lemma to 9638 and 5665, to get
9638 = 5665 x 1 + 3973
Step 2: Since the reminder 5665 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 3973 and 5665, to get
5665 = 3973 x 1 + 1692
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 3973 and the new remainder 1692, and apply the division lemma to get
3973 = 1692 x 2 + 589
We consider the new divisor 1692 and the new remainder 589,and apply the division lemma to get
1692 = 589 x 2 + 514
We consider the new divisor 589 and the new remainder 514,and apply the division lemma to get
589 = 514 x 1 + 75
We consider the new divisor 514 and the new remainder 75,and apply the division lemma to get
514 = 75 x 6 + 64
We consider the new divisor 75 and the new remainder 64,and apply the division lemma to get
75 = 64 x 1 + 11
We consider the new divisor 64 and the new remainder 11,and apply the division lemma to get
64 = 11 x 5 + 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 5665 and 9638 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(9,2) = HCF(11,9) = HCF(64,11) = HCF(75,64) = HCF(514,75) = HCF(589,514) = HCF(1692,589) = HCF(3973,1692) = HCF(5665,3973) = HCF(9638,5665) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
