HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 353, 964, 770, 669 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 353, 964, 770, 669 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 353, 964, 770, 669 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 353, 964, 770, 669 is 1.
HCF(353, 964, 770, 669) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 353, 964, 770, 669 is 1.
Step 1: Since 964 > 353, we apply the division lemma to 964 and 353, to get
964 = 353 x 2 + 258
Step 2: Since the reminder 353 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 258 and 353, to get
353 = 258 x 1 + 95
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 258 and the new remainder 95, and apply the division lemma to get
258 = 95 x 2 + 68
We consider the new divisor 95 and the new remainder 68,and apply the division lemma to get
95 = 68 x 1 + 27
We consider the new divisor 68 and the new remainder 27,and apply the division lemma to get
68 = 27 x 2 + 14
We consider the new divisor 27 and the new remainder 14,and apply the division lemma to get
27 = 14 x 1 + 13
We consider the new divisor 14 and the new remainder 13,and apply the division lemma to get
14 = 13 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 13 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
13 = 1 x 13 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 353 and 964 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(13,1) = HCF(14,13) = HCF(27,14) = HCF(68,27) = HCF(95,68) = HCF(258,95) = HCF(353,258) = HCF(964,353) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 770 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 770 and 1, to get
770 = 1 x 770 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 770 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(770,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 669 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 669 and 1, to get
669 = 1 x 669 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 669 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(669,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
