HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 8348, 4363 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 8348, 4363 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 8348, 4363 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 8348, 4363 is 1.
HCF(8348, 4363) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 8348, 4363 is 1.
Step 1: Since 8348 > 4363, we apply the division lemma to 8348 and 4363, to get
8348 = 4363 x 1 + 3985
Step 2: Since the reminder 4363 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 3985 and 4363, to get
4363 = 3985 x 1 + 378
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 3985 and the new remainder 378, and apply the division lemma to get
3985 = 378 x 10 + 205
We consider the new divisor 378 and the new remainder 205,and apply the division lemma to get
378 = 205 x 1 + 173
We consider the new divisor 205 and the new remainder 173,and apply the division lemma to get
205 = 173 x 1 + 32
We consider the new divisor 173 and the new remainder 32,and apply the division lemma to get
173 = 32 x 5 + 13
We consider the new divisor 32 and the new remainder 13,and apply the division lemma to get
32 = 13 x 2 + 6
We consider the new divisor 13 and the new remainder 6,and apply the division lemma to get
13 = 6 x 2 + 1
We consider the new divisor 6 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
6 = 1 x 6 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 8348 and 4363 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(6,1) = HCF(13,6) = HCF(32,13) = HCF(173,32) = HCF(205,173) = HCF(378,205) = HCF(3985,378) = HCF(4363,3985) = HCF(8348,4363) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
