HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 58, 39, 81, 75 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 58, 39, 81, 75 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 58, 39, 81, 75 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 58, 39, 81, 75 is 1.
HCF(58, 39, 81, 75) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 58, 39, 81, 75 is 1.
Step 1: Since 58 > 39, we apply the division lemma to 58 and 39, to get
58 = 39 x 1 + 19
Step 2: Since the reminder 39 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 19 and 39, to get
39 = 19 x 2 + 1
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 19 and the new remainder 1, and apply the division lemma to get
19 = 1 x 19 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 58 and 39 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(19,1) = HCF(39,19) = HCF(58,39) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 81 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 81 and 1, to get
81 = 1 x 81 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 81 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(81,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 75 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 75 and 1, to get
75 = 1 x 75 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 75 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(75,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
Answer: Euclid's Division Algorithm is a technique to compute the Highest Common Factor (HCF) of given positive integers.
2. what is the HCF of 58, 39, 81, 75?
Answer: HCF of 58, 39, 81, 75 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 58, 39, 81, 75 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 58, 39, 81, 75 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
