HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 707, 2829, 7475 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 707, 2829, 7475 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 707, 2829, 7475 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 707, 2829, 7475 is 1.
HCF(707, 2829, 7475) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 707, 2829, 7475 is 1.
Step 1: Since 2829 > 707, we apply the division lemma to 2829 and 707, to get
2829 = 707 x 4 + 1
Step 2: Since the reminder 707 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1 and 707, to get
707 = 1 x 707 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 707 and 2829 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(707,1) = HCF(2829,707) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 7475 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 7475 and 1, to get
7475 = 1 x 7475 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 7475 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(7475,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
