HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 413, 177, 945 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 413, 177, 945 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 413, 177, 945 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 413, 177, 945 is 1.
HCF(413, 177, 945) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 413, 177, 945 is 1.
Step 1: Since 413 > 177, we apply the division lemma to 413 and 177, to get
413 = 177 x 2 + 59
Step 2: Since the reminder 177 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 59 and 177, to get
177 = 59 x 3 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 59, the HCF of 413 and 177 is 59
Notice that 59 = HCF(177,59) = HCF(413,177) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 945 > 59, we apply the division lemma to 945 and 59, to get
945 = 59 x 16 + 1
Step 2: Since the reminder 59 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1 and 59, to get
59 = 1 x 59 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 59 and 945 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(59,1) = HCF(945,59) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
