HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 7085, 9865, 10594 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 7085, 9865, 10594 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 7085, 9865, 10594 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 7085, 9865, 10594 is 1.
HCF(7085, 9865, 10594) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 7085, 9865, 10594 is 1.
Step 1: Since 9865 > 7085, we apply the division lemma to 9865 and 7085, to get
9865 = 7085 x 1 + 2780
Step 2: Since the reminder 7085 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 2780 and 7085, to get
7085 = 2780 x 2 + 1525
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 2780 and the new remainder 1525, and apply the division lemma to get
2780 = 1525 x 1 + 1255
We consider the new divisor 1525 and the new remainder 1255,and apply the division lemma to get
1525 = 1255 x 1 + 270
We consider the new divisor 1255 and the new remainder 270,and apply the division lemma to get
1255 = 270 x 4 + 175
We consider the new divisor 270 and the new remainder 175,and apply the division lemma to get
270 = 175 x 1 + 95
We consider the new divisor 175 and the new remainder 95,and apply the division lemma to get
175 = 95 x 1 + 80
We consider the new divisor 95 and the new remainder 80,and apply the division lemma to get
95 = 80 x 1 + 15
We consider the new divisor 80 and the new remainder 15,and apply the division lemma to get
80 = 15 x 5 + 5
We consider the new divisor 15 and the new remainder 5,and apply the division lemma to get
15 = 5 x 3 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 5, the HCF of 7085 and 9865 is 5
Notice that 5 = HCF(15,5) = HCF(80,15) = HCF(95,80) = HCF(175,95) = HCF(270,175) = HCF(1255,270) = HCF(1525,1255) = HCF(2780,1525) = HCF(7085,2780) = HCF(9865,7085) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 10594 > 5, we apply the division lemma to 10594 and 5, to get
10594 = 5 x 2118 + 4
Step 2: Since the reminder 5 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 4 and 5, to get
5 = 4 x 1 + 1
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 4 and the new remainder 1, and apply the division lemma to get
4 = 1 x 4 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 5 and 10594 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(4,1) = HCF(5,4) = HCF(10594,5) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
