HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 863, 96375 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 863, 96375 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 863, 96375 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 863, 96375 is 1.
HCF(863, 96375) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 863, 96375 is 1.
Step 1: Since 96375 > 863, we apply the division lemma to 96375 and 863, to get
96375 = 863 x 111 + 582
Step 2: Since the reminder 863 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 582 and 863, to get
863 = 582 x 1 + 281
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 582 and the new remainder 281, and apply the division lemma to get
582 = 281 x 2 + 20
We consider the new divisor 281 and the new remainder 20,and apply the division lemma to get
281 = 20 x 14 + 1
We consider the new divisor 20 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
20 = 1 x 20 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 863 and 96375 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(20,1) = HCF(281,20) = HCF(582,281) = HCF(863,582) = HCF(96375,863) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
