HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 6105, 3106, 33249 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 6105, 3106, 33249 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 6105, 3106, 33249 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 6105, 3106, 33249 is 1.
HCF(6105, 3106, 33249) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 6105, 3106, 33249 is 1.
Step 1: Since 6105 > 3106, we apply the division lemma to 6105 and 3106, to get
6105 = 3106 x 1 + 2999
Step 2: Since the reminder 3106 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 2999 and 3106, to get
3106 = 2999 x 1 + 107
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 2999 and the new remainder 107, and apply the division lemma to get
2999 = 107 x 28 + 3
We consider the new divisor 107 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
107 = 3 x 35 + 2
We consider the new divisor 3 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
3 = 2 x 1 + 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 6105 and 3106 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(3,2) = HCF(107,3) = HCF(2999,107) = HCF(3106,2999) = HCF(6105,3106) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 33249 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 33249 and 1, to get
33249 = 1 x 33249 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 33249 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(33249,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
