HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 413, 667, 937, 514 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 413, 667, 937, 514 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, 667, 937, 514 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, 667, 937, 514 is 1.
HCF(413, 667, 937, 514) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 413, 667, 937, 514 is 1.
Step 1: Since 667 > 413, we apply the division lemma to 667 and 413, to get
667 = 413 x 1 + 254
Step 2: Since the reminder 413 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 254 and 413, to get
413 = 254 x 1 + 159
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 254 and the new remainder 159, and apply the division lemma to get
254 = 159 x 1 + 95
We consider the new divisor 159 and the new remainder 95,and apply the division lemma to get
159 = 95 x 1 + 64
We consider the new divisor 95 and the new remainder 64,and apply the division lemma to get
95 = 64 x 1 + 31
We consider the new divisor 64 and the new remainder 31,and apply the division lemma to get
64 = 31 x 2 + 2
We consider the new divisor 31 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
31 = 2 x 15 + 1
We consider the new divisor 2 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
2 = 1 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 413 and 667 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(31,2) = HCF(64,31) = HCF(95,64) = HCF(159,95) = HCF(254,159) = HCF(413,254) = HCF(667,413) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 937 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 937 and 1, to get
937 = 1 x 937 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 937 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(937,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 514 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 514 and 1, to get
514 = 1 x 514 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 514 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(514,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
