HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 8063, 7941 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 8063, 7941 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 8063, 7941 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 8063, 7941 is 1.
HCF(8063, 7941) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 8063, 7941 is 1.
Step 1: Since 8063 > 7941, we apply the division lemma to 8063 and 7941, to get
8063 = 7941 x 1 + 122
Step 2: Since the reminder 7941 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 122 and 7941, to get
7941 = 122 x 65 + 11
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 122 and the new remainder 11, and apply the division lemma to get
122 = 11 x 11 + 1
We consider the new divisor 11 and the new remainder 1, and apply the division lemma to get
11 = 1 x 11 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 8063 and 7941 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(11,1) = HCF(122,11) = HCF(7941,122) = HCF(8063,7941) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
