HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 411, 559, 109, 665 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 411, 559, 109, 665 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 411, 559, 109, 665 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 411, 559, 109, 665 is 1.
HCF(411, 559, 109, 665) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 411, 559, 109, 665 is 1.
Step 1: Since 559 > 411, we apply the division lemma to 559 and 411, to get
559 = 411 x 1 + 148
Step 2: Since the reminder 411 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 148 and 411, to get
411 = 148 x 2 + 115
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 148 and the new remainder 115, and apply the division lemma to get
148 = 115 x 1 + 33
We consider the new divisor 115 and the new remainder 33,and apply the division lemma to get
115 = 33 x 3 + 16
We consider the new divisor 33 and the new remainder 16,and apply the division lemma to get
33 = 16 x 2 + 1
We consider the new divisor 16 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
16 = 1 x 16 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 411 and 559 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(16,1) = HCF(33,16) = HCF(115,33) = HCF(148,115) = HCF(411,148) = HCF(559,411) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 109 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 109 and 1, to get
109 = 1 x 109 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 109 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(109,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 665 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 665 and 1, to get
665 = 1 x 665 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 665 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(665,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
