HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 433, 527, 152, 362 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 433, 527, 152, 362 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 433, 527, 152, 362 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 433, 527, 152, 362 is 1.
HCF(433, 527, 152, 362) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 433, 527, 152, 362 is 1.
Step 1: Since 527 > 433, we apply the division lemma to 527 and 433, to get
527 = 433 x 1 + 94
Step 2: Since the reminder 433 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 94 and 433, to get
433 = 94 x 4 + 57
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 94 and the new remainder 57, and apply the division lemma to get
94 = 57 x 1 + 37
We consider the new divisor 57 and the new remainder 37,and apply the division lemma to get
57 = 37 x 1 + 20
We consider the new divisor 37 and the new remainder 20,and apply the division lemma to get
37 = 20 x 1 + 17
We consider the new divisor 20 and the new remainder 17,and apply the division lemma to get
20 = 17 x 1 + 3
We consider the new divisor 17 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
17 = 3 x 5 + 2
We consider the new divisor 3 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
3 = 2 x 1 + 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 433 and 527 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(3,2) = HCF(17,3) = HCF(20,17) = HCF(37,20) = HCF(57,37) = HCF(94,57) = HCF(433,94) = HCF(527,433) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 152 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 152 and 1, to get
152 = 1 x 152 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 152 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(152,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 362 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 362 and 1, to get
362 = 1 x 362 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 362 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(362,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
