HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 9317, 4912 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 9317, 4912 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 9317, 4912 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 9317, 4912 is 1.
HCF(9317, 4912) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 9317, 4912 is 1.
Step 1: Since 9317 > 4912, we apply the division lemma to 9317 and 4912, to get
9317 = 4912 x 1 + 4405
Step 2: Since the reminder 4912 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 4405 and 4912, to get
4912 = 4405 x 1 + 507
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 4405 and the new remainder 507, and apply the division lemma to get
4405 = 507 x 8 + 349
We consider the new divisor 507 and the new remainder 349,and apply the division lemma to get
507 = 349 x 1 + 158
We consider the new divisor 349 and the new remainder 158,and apply the division lemma to get
349 = 158 x 2 + 33
We consider the new divisor 158 and the new remainder 33,and apply the division lemma to get
158 = 33 x 4 + 26
We consider the new divisor 33 and the new remainder 26,and apply the division lemma to get
33 = 26 x 1 + 7
We consider the new divisor 26 and the new remainder 7,and apply the division lemma to get
26 = 7 x 3 + 5
We consider the new divisor 7 and the new remainder 5,and apply the division lemma to get
7 = 5 x 1 + 2
We consider the new divisor 5 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
5 = 2 x 2 + 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 9317 and 4912 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(5,2) = HCF(7,5) = HCF(26,7) = HCF(33,26) = HCF(158,33) = HCF(349,158) = HCF(507,349) = HCF(4405,507) = HCF(4912,4405) = HCF(9317,4912) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
