HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 9349, 9055, 59638 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 9349, 9055, 59638 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 9349, 9055, 59638 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 9349, 9055, 59638 is 1.
HCF(9349, 9055, 59638) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 9349, 9055, 59638 is 1.
Step 1: Since 9349 > 9055, we apply the division lemma to 9349 and 9055, to get
9349 = 9055 x 1 + 294
Step 2: Since the reminder 9055 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 294 and 9055, to get
9055 = 294 x 30 + 235
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 294 and the new remainder 235, and apply the division lemma to get
294 = 235 x 1 + 59
We consider the new divisor 235 and the new remainder 59,and apply the division lemma to get
235 = 59 x 3 + 58
We consider the new divisor 59 and the new remainder 58,and apply the division lemma to get
59 = 58 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 58 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
58 = 1 x 58 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 9349 and 9055 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(58,1) = HCF(59,58) = HCF(235,59) = HCF(294,235) = HCF(9055,294) = HCF(9349,9055) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 59638 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 59638 and 1, to get
59638 = 1 x 59638 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 59638 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(59638,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
