HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 9925, 6573 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 9925, 6573 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 9925, 6573 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 9925, 6573 is 1.
HCF(9925, 6573) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 9925, 6573 is 1.
Step 1: Since 9925 > 6573, we apply the division lemma to 9925 and 6573, to get
9925 = 6573 x 1 + 3352
Step 2: Since the reminder 6573 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 3352 and 6573, to get
6573 = 3352 x 1 + 3221
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 3352 and the new remainder 3221, and apply the division lemma to get
3352 = 3221 x 1 + 131
We consider the new divisor 3221 and the new remainder 131,and apply the division lemma to get
3221 = 131 x 24 + 77
We consider the new divisor 131 and the new remainder 77,and apply the division lemma to get
131 = 77 x 1 + 54
We consider the new divisor 77 and the new remainder 54,and apply the division lemma to get
77 = 54 x 1 + 23
We consider the new divisor 54 and the new remainder 23,and apply the division lemma to get
54 = 23 x 2 + 8
We consider the new divisor 23 and the new remainder 8,and apply the division lemma to get
23 = 8 x 2 + 7
We consider the new divisor 8 and the new remainder 7,and apply the division lemma to get
8 = 7 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 7 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
7 = 1 x 7 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 9925 and 6573 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(7,1) = HCF(8,7) = HCF(23,8) = HCF(54,23) = HCF(77,54) = HCF(131,77) = HCF(3221,131) = HCF(3352,3221) = HCF(6573,3352) = HCF(9925,6573) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
