HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 295, 323, 933, 191 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 295, 323, 933, 191 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 295, 323, 933, 191 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 295, 323, 933, 191 is 1.
HCF(295, 323, 933, 191) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 295, 323, 933, 191 is 1.
Step 1: Since 323 > 295, we apply the division lemma to 323 and 295, to get
323 = 295 x 1 + 28
Step 2: Since the reminder 295 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 28 and 295, to get
295 = 28 x 10 + 15
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 28 and the new remainder 15, and apply the division lemma to get
28 = 15 x 1 + 13
We consider the new divisor 15 and the new remainder 13,and apply the division lemma to get
15 = 13 x 1 + 2
We consider the new divisor 13 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
13 = 2 x 6 + 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 295 and 323 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(13,2) = HCF(15,13) = HCF(28,15) = HCF(295,28) = HCF(323,295) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 933 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 933 and 1, to get
933 = 1 x 933 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 933 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(933,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 191 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 191 and 1, to get
191 = 1 x 191 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 191 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(191,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
