HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 7806, 5785 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 7806, 5785 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 7806, 5785 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 7806, 5785 is 1.
HCF(7806, 5785) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 7806, 5785 is 1.
Step 1: Since 7806 > 5785, we apply the division lemma to 7806 and 5785, to get
7806 = 5785 x 1 + 2021
Step 2: Since the reminder 5785 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 2021 and 5785, to get
5785 = 2021 x 2 + 1743
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 2021 and the new remainder 1743, and apply the division lemma to get
2021 = 1743 x 1 + 278
We consider the new divisor 1743 and the new remainder 278,and apply the division lemma to get
1743 = 278 x 6 + 75
We consider the new divisor 278 and the new remainder 75,and apply the division lemma to get
278 = 75 x 3 + 53
We consider the new divisor 75 and the new remainder 53,and apply the division lemma to get
75 = 53 x 1 + 22
We consider the new divisor 53 and the new remainder 22,and apply the division lemma to get
53 = 22 x 2 + 9
We consider the new divisor 22 and the new remainder 9,and apply the division lemma to get
22 = 9 x 2 + 4
We consider the new divisor 9 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
9 = 4 x 2 + 1
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 7806 and 5785 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(4,1) = HCF(9,4) = HCF(22,9) = HCF(53,22) = HCF(75,53) = HCF(278,75) = HCF(1743,278) = HCF(2021,1743) = HCF(5785,2021) = HCF(7806,5785) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
