HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 433, 801, 714 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 433, 801, 714 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, 801, 714 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, 801, 714 is 1.
HCF(433, 801, 714) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 433, 801, 714 is 1.
Step 1: Since 801 > 433, we apply the division lemma to 801 and 433, to get
801 = 433 x 1 + 368
Step 2: Since the reminder 433 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 368 and 433, to get
433 = 368 x 1 + 65
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 368 and the new remainder 65, and apply the division lemma to get
368 = 65 x 5 + 43
We consider the new divisor 65 and the new remainder 43,and apply the division lemma to get
65 = 43 x 1 + 22
We consider the new divisor 43 and the new remainder 22,and apply the division lemma to get
43 = 22 x 1 + 21
We consider the new divisor 22 and the new remainder 21,and apply the division lemma to get
22 = 21 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 21 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
21 = 1 x 21 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 433 and 801 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(21,1) = HCF(22,21) = HCF(43,22) = HCF(65,43) = HCF(368,65) = HCF(433,368) = HCF(801,433) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 714 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 714 and 1, to get
714 = 1 x 714 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 714 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(714,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?

2. what is the HCF of 433, 801, 714?
Answer: HCF of 433, 801, 714 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 433, 801, 714 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 433, 801, 714 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
