HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 913, 6297, 3635 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 913, 6297, 3635 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 913, 6297, 3635 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 913, 6297, 3635 is 1.
HCF(913, 6297, 3635) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 913, 6297, 3635 is 1.
Step 1: Since 6297 > 913, we apply the division lemma to 6297 and 913, to get
6297 = 913 x 6 + 819
Step 2: Since the reminder 913 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 819 and 913, to get
913 = 819 x 1 + 94
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 819 and the new remainder 94, and apply the division lemma to get
819 = 94 x 8 + 67
We consider the new divisor 94 and the new remainder 67,and apply the division lemma to get
94 = 67 x 1 + 27
We consider the new divisor 67 and the new remainder 27,and apply the division lemma to get
67 = 27 x 2 + 13
We consider the new divisor 27 and the new remainder 13,and apply the division lemma to get
27 = 13 x 2 + 1
We consider the new divisor 13 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
13 = 1 x 13 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 913 and 6297 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(13,1) = HCF(27,13) = HCF(67,27) = HCF(94,67) = HCF(819,94) = HCF(913,819) = HCF(6297,913) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 3635 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 3635 and 1, to get
3635 = 1 x 3635 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 3635 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3635,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
