HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 193, 535, 60, 292 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 193, 535, 60, 292 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 193, 535, 60, 292 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 193, 535, 60, 292 is 1.
HCF(193, 535, 60, 292) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 193, 535, 60, 292 is 1.
Step 1: Since 535 > 193, we apply the division lemma to 535 and 193, to get
535 = 193 x 2 + 149
Step 2: Since the reminder 193 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 149 and 193, to get
193 = 149 x 1 + 44
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 149 and the new remainder 44, and apply the division lemma to get
149 = 44 x 3 + 17
We consider the new divisor 44 and the new remainder 17,and apply the division lemma to get
44 = 17 x 2 + 10
We consider the new divisor 17 and the new remainder 10,and apply the division lemma to get
17 = 10 x 1 + 7
We consider the new divisor 10 and the new remainder 7,and apply the division lemma to get
10 = 7 x 1 + 3
We consider the new divisor 7 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
7 = 3 x 2 + 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 193 and 535 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(7,3) = HCF(10,7) = HCF(17,10) = HCF(44,17) = HCF(149,44) = HCF(193,149) = HCF(535,193) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 60 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 60 and 1, to get
60 = 1 x 60 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 60 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(60,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 292 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 292 and 1, to get
292 = 1 x 292 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 292 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(292,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
