HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 9021, 9844 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 9021, 9844 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 9021, 9844 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 9021, 9844 is 1.
HCF(9021, 9844) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 9021, 9844 is 1.
Step 1: Since 9844 > 9021, we apply the division lemma to 9844 and 9021, to get
9844 = 9021 x 1 + 823
Step 2: Since the reminder 9021 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 823 and 9021, to get
9021 = 823 x 10 + 791
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 823 and the new remainder 791, and apply the division lemma to get
823 = 791 x 1 + 32
We consider the new divisor 791 and the new remainder 32,and apply the division lemma to get
791 = 32 x 24 + 23
We consider the new divisor 32 and the new remainder 23,and apply the division lemma to get
32 = 23 x 1 + 9
We consider the new divisor 23 and the new remainder 9,and apply the division lemma to get
23 = 9 x 2 + 5
We consider the new divisor 9 and the new remainder 5,and apply the division lemma to get
9 = 5 x 1 + 4
We consider the new divisor 5 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
5 = 4 x 1 + 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 9021 and 9844 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(4,1) = HCF(5,4) = HCF(9,5) = HCF(23,9) = HCF(32,23) = HCF(791,32) = HCF(823,791) = HCF(9021,823) = HCF(9844,9021) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
