HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 8575, 7733 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 8575, 7733 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 8575, 7733 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 8575, 7733 is 1.
HCF(8575, 7733) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 8575, 7733 is 1.
Step 1: Since 8575 > 7733, we apply the division lemma to 8575 and 7733, to get
8575 = 7733 x 1 + 842
Step 2: Since the reminder 7733 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 842 and 7733, to get
7733 = 842 x 9 + 155
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 842 and the new remainder 155, and apply the division lemma to get
842 = 155 x 5 + 67
We consider the new divisor 155 and the new remainder 67,and apply the division lemma to get
155 = 67 x 2 + 21
We consider the new divisor 67 and the new remainder 21,and apply the division lemma to get
67 = 21 x 3 + 4
We consider the new divisor 21 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
21 = 4 x 5 + 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 8575 and 7733 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(4,1) = HCF(21,4) = HCF(67,21) = HCF(155,67) = HCF(842,155) = HCF(7733,842) = HCF(8575,7733) .
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 8575, 7733?
Answer: HCF of 8575, 7733 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 8575, 7733 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 8575, 7733 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
