HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 9927, 6490 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 9927, 6490 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 9927, 6490 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 9927, 6490 is 1.
HCF(9927, 6490) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 9927, 6490 is 1.
Step 1: Since 9927 > 6490, we apply the division lemma to 9927 and 6490, to get
9927 = 6490 x 1 + 3437
Step 2: Since the reminder 6490 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 3437 and 6490, to get
6490 = 3437 x 1 + 3053
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 3437 and the new remainder 3053, and apply the division lemma to get
3437 = 3053 x 1 + 384
We consider the new divisor 3053 and the new remainder 384,and apply the division lemma to get
3053 = 384 x 7 + 365
We consider the new divisor 384 and the new remainder 365,and apply the division lemma to get
384 = 365 x 1 + 19
We consider the new divisor 365 and the new remainder 19,and apply the division lemma to get
365 = 19 x 19 + 4
We consider the new divisor 19 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
19 = 4 x 4 + 3
We consider the new divisor 4 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
4 = 3 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 3 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
3 = 1 x 3 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 9927 and 6490 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(4,3) = HCF(19,4) = HCF(365,19) = HCF(384,365) = HCF(3053,384) = HCF(3437,3053) = HCF(6490,3437) = HCF(9927,6490) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
