HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 9028, 3127, 20210 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 9028, 3127, 20210 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 9028, 3127, 20210 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 9028, 3127, 20210 is 1.
HCF(9028, 3127, 20210) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 9028, 3127, 20210 is 1.
Step 1: Since 9028 > 3127, we apply the division lemma to 9028 and 3127, to get
9028 = 3127 x 2 + 2774
Step 2: Since the reminder 3127 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 2774 and 3127, to get
3127 = 2774 x 1 + 353
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 2774 and the new remainder 353, and apply the division lemma to get
2774 = 353 x 7 + 303
We consider the new divisor 353 and the new remainder 303,and apply the division lemma to get
353 = 303 x 1 + 50
We consider the new divisor 303 and the new remainder 50,and apply the division lemma to get
303 = 50 x 6 + 3
We consider the new divisor 50 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
50 = 3 x 16 + 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 9028 and 3127 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(3,2) = HCF(50,3) = HCF(303,50) = HCF(353,303) = HCF(2774,353) = HCF(3127,2774) = HCF(9028,3127) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 20210 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 20210 and 1, to get
20210 = 1 x 20210 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 20210 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(20210,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
