HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 7425, 7646, 44025 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 7425, 7646, 44025 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 7425, 7646, 44025 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 7425, 7646, 44025 is 1.
HCF(7425, 7646, 44025) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 7425, 7646, 44025 is 1.
Step 1: Since 7646 > 7425, we apply the division lemma to 7646 and 7425, to get
7646 = 7425 x 1 + 221
Step 2: Since the reminder 7425 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 221 and 7425, to get
7425 = 221 x 33 + 132
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 221 and the new remainder 132, and apply the division lemma to get
221 = 132 x 1 + 89
We consider the new divisor 132 and the new remainder 89,and apply the division lemma to get
132 = 89 x 1 + 43
We consider the new divisor 89 and the new remainder 43,and apply the division lemma to get
89 = 43 x 2 + 3
We consider the new divisor 43 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
43 = 3 x 14 + 1
We consider the new divisor 3 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
3 = 1 x 3 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 7425 and 7646 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(43,3) = HCF(89,43) = HCF(132,89) = HCF(221,132) = HCF(7425,221) = HCF(7646,7425) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 44025 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 44025 and 1, to get
44025 = 1 x 44025 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 44025 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(44025,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
