HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 821, 90301 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 821, 90301 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 821, 90301 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 821, 90301 is 1.
HCF(821, 90301) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 821, 90301 is 1.
Step 1: Since 90301 > 821, we apply the division lemma to 90301 and 821, to get
90301 = 821 x 109 + 812
Step 2: Since the reminder 821 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 812 and 821, to get
821 = 812 x 1 + 9
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 812 and the new remainder 9, and apply the division lemma to get
812 = 9 x 90 + 2
We consider the new divisor 9 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
9 = 2 x 4 + 1
We consider the new divisor 2 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
2 = 1 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 821 and 90301 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(9,2) = HCF(812,9) = HCF(821,812) = HCF(90301,821) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
Answer: Euclid's Division Algorithm is a technique to compute the Highest Common Factor (HCF) of given positive integers.
2. what is the HCF of 821, 90301?
Answer: HCF of 821, 90301 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 821, 90301 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 821, 90301 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
