HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 327, 313, 924 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 327, 313, 924 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 327, 313, 924 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 327, 313, 924 is 1.
HCF(327, 313, 924) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 327, 313, 924 is 1.
Step 1: Since 327 > 313, we apply the division lemma to 327 and 313, to get
327 = 313 x 1 + 14
Step 2: Since the reminder 313 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 14 and 313, to get
313 = 14 x 22 + 5
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 14 and the new remainder 5, and apply the division lemma to get
14 = 5 x 2 + 4
We consider the new divisor 5 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
5 = 4 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 4 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
4 = 1 x 4 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 327 and 313 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(4,1) = HCF(5,4) = HCF(14,5) = HCF(313,14) = HCF(327,313) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 924 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 924 and 1, to get
924 = 1 x 924 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 924 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(924,1) .
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 327, 313, 924?
Answer: HCF of 327, 313, 924 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 327, 313, 924 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 327, 313, 924 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
