HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 8263, 2317, 14543 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 8263, 2317, 14543 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 8263, 2317, 14543 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 8263, 2317, 14543 is 1.
HCF(8263, 2317, 14543) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 8263, 2317, 14543 is 1.
Step 1: Since 8263 > 2317, we apply the division lemma to 8263 and 2317, to get
8263 = 2317 x 3 + 1312
Step 2: Since the reminder 2317 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1312 and 2317, to get
2317 = 1312 x 1 + 1005
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 1312 and the new remainder 1005, and apply the division lemma to get
1312 = 1005 x 1 + 307
We consider the new divisor 1005 and the new remainder 307,and apply the division lemma to get
1005 = 307 x 3 + 84
We consider the new divisor 307 and the new remainder 84,and apply the division lemma to get
307 = 84 x 3 + 55
We consider the new divisor 84 and the new remainder 55,and apply the division lemma to get
84 = 55 x 1 + 29
We consider the new divisor 55 and the new remainder 29,and apply the division lemma to get
55 = 29 x 1 + 26
We consider the new divisor 29 and the new remainder 26,and apply the division lemma to get
29 = 26 x 1 + 3
We consider the new divisor 26 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
26 = 3 x 8 + 2
We consider the new divisor 3 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
3 = 2 x 1 + 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 8263 and 2317 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(3,2) = HCF(26,3) = HCF(29,26) = HCF(55,29) = HCF(84,55) = HCF(307,84) = HCF(1005,307) = HCF(1312,1005) = HCF(2317,1312) = HCF(8263,2317) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 14543 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 14543 and 1, to get
14543 = 1 x 14543 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 14543 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(14543,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
