HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 133, 882, 692 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 133, 882, 692 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 133, 882, 692 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 133, 882, 692 is 1.
HCF(133, 882, 692) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 133, 882, 692 is 1.
Step 1: Since 882 > 133, we apply the division lemma to 882 and 133, to get
882 = 133 x 6 + 84
Step 2: Since the reminder 133 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 84 and 133, to get
133 = 84 x 1 + 49
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 84 and the new remainder 49, and apply the division lemma to get
84 = 49 x 1 + 35
We consider the new divisor 49 and the new remainder 35,and apply the division lemma to get
49 = 35 x 1 + 14
We consider the new divisor 35 and the new remainder 14,and apply the division lemma to get
35 = 14 x 2 + 7
We consider the new divisor 14 and the new remainder 7,and apply the division lemma to get
14 = 7 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 7, the HCF of 133 and 882 is 7
Notice that 7 = HCF(14,7) = HCF(35,14) = HCF(49,35) = HCF(84,49) = HCF(133,84) = HCF(882,133) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 692 > 7, we apply the division lemma to 692 and 7, to get
692 = 7 x 98 + 6
Step 2: Since the reminder 7 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 6 and 7, to get
7 = 6 x 1 + 1
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 6 and the new remainder 1, and apply the division lemma to get
6 = 1 x 6 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 7 and 692 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(6,1) = HCF(7,6) = HCF(692,7) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.

2. what is the HCF of 133, 882, 692?
Answer: HCF of 133, 882, 692 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 133, 882, 692 using Euclid's Algorithm?
