HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 9311, 5374 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 9311, 5374 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 9311, 5374 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 9311, 5374 is 1.
HCF(9311, 5374) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 9311, 5374 is 1.
Step 1: Since 9311 > 5374, we apply the division lemma to 9311 and 5374, to get
9311 = 5374 x 1 + 3937
Step 2: Since the reminder 5374 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 3937 and 5374, to get
5374 = 3937 x 1 + 1437
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 3937 and the new remainder 1437, and apply the division lemma to get
3937 = 1437 x 2 + 1063
We consider the new divisor 1437 and the new remainder 1063,and apply the division lemma to get
1437 = 1063 x 1 + 374
We consider the new divisor 1063 and the new remainder 374,and apply the division lemma to get
1063 = 374 x 2 + 315
We consider the new divisor 374 and the new remainder 315,and apply the division lemma to get
374 = 315 x 1 + 59
We consider the new divisor 315 and the new remainder 59,and apply the division lemma to get
315 = 59 x 5 + 20
We consider the new divisor 59 and the new remainder 20,and apply the division lemma to get
59 = 20 x 2 + 19
We consider the new divisor 20 and the new remainder 19,and apply the division lemma to get
20 = 19 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 19 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
19 = 1 x 19 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 9311 and 5374 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(19,1) = HCF(20,19) = HCF(59,20) = HCF(315,59) = HCF(374,315) = HCF(1063,374) = HCF(1437,1063) = HCF(3937,1437) = HCF(5374,3937) = HCF(9311,5374) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
