HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 419, 329, 651 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 419, 329, 651 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 419, 329, 651 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 419, 329, 651 is 1.
HCF(419, 329, 651) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 419, 329, 651 is 1.
Step 1: Since 419 > 329, we apply the division lemma to 419 and 329, to get
419 = 329 x 1 + 90
Step 2: Since the reminder 329 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 90 and 329, to get
329 = 90 x 3 + 59
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 90 and the new remainder 59, and apply the division lemma to get
90 = 59 x 1 + 31
We consider the new divisor 59 and the new remainder 31,and apply the division lemma to get
59 = 31 x 1 + 28
We consider the new divisor 31 and the new remainder 28,and apply the division lemma to get
31 = 28 x 1 + 3
We consider the new divisor 28 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
28 = 3 x 9 + 1
We consider the new divisor 3 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
3 = 1 x 3 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 419 and 329 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(28,3) = HCF(31,28) = HCF(59,31) = HCF(90,59) = HCF(329,90) = HCF(419,329) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 651 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 651 and 1, to get
651 = 1 x 651 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 651 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(651,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
