HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 319, 539, 582 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 319, 539, 582 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 319, 539, 582 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 319, 539, 582 is 1.
HCF(319, 539, 582) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 319, 539, 582 is 1.
Step 1: Since 539 > 319, we apply the division lemma to 539 and 319, to get
539 = 319 x 1 + 220
Step 2: Since the reminder 319 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 220 and 319, to get
319 = 220 x 1 + 99
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 220 and the new remainder 99, and apply the division lemma to get
220 = 99 x 2 + 22
We consider the new divisor 99 and the new remainder 22,and apply the division lemma to get
99 = 22 x 4 + 11
We consider the new divisor 22 and the new remainder 11,and apply the division lemma to get
22 = 11 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 11, the HCF of 319 and 539 is 11
Notice that 11 = HCF(22,11) = HCF(99,22) = HCF(220,99) = HCF(319,220) = HCF(539,319) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 582 > 11, we apply the division lemma to 582 and 11, to get
582 = 11 x 52 + 10
Step 2: Since the reminder 11 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 10 and 11, to get
11 = 10 x 1 + 1
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 10 and the new remainder 1, and apply the division lemma to get
10 = 1 x 10 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 11 and 582 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(10,1) = HCF(11,10) = HCF(582,11) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
Answer: Euclid's Division Algorithm is a technique to compute the Highest Common Factor (HCF) of given positive integers.
2. what is the HCF of 319, 539, 582?
Answer: HCF of 319, 539, 582 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 319, 539, 582 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 319, 539, 582 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
