HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 9599, 8370 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 9599, 8370 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 9599, 8370 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 9599, 8370 is 1.
HCF(9599, 8370) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 9599, 8370 is 1.
Step 1: Since 9599 > 8370, we apply the division lemma to 9599 and 8370, to get
9599 = 8370 x 1 + 1229
Step 2: Since the reminder 8370 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1229 and 8370, to get
8370 = 1229 x 6 + 996
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 1229 and the new remainder 996, and apply the division lemma to get
1229 = 996 x 1 + 233
We consider the new divisor 996 and the new remainder 233,and apply the division lemma to get
996 = 233 x 4 + 64
We consider the new divisor 233 and the new remainder 64,and apply the division lemma to get
233 = 64 x 3 + 41
We consider the new divisor 64 and the new remainder 41,and apply the division lemma to get
64 = 41 x 1 + 23
We consider the new divisor 41 and the new remainder 23,and apply the division lemma to get
41 = 23 x 1 + 18
We consider the new divisor 23 and the new remainder 18,and apply the division lemma to get
23 = 18 x 1 + 5
We consider the new divisor 18 and the new remainder 5,and apply the division lemma to get
18 = 5 x 3 + 3
We consider the new divisor 5 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
5 = 3 x 1 + 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 9599 and 8370 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(3,2) = HCF(5,3) = HCF(18,5) = HCF(23,18) = HCF(41,23) = HCF(64,41) = HCF(233,64) = HCF(996,233) = HCF(1229,996) = HCF(8370,1229) = HCF(9599,8370) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
