HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 439, 577, 413 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 439, 577, 413 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 439, 577, 413 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 439, 577, 413 is 1.
HCF(439, 577, 413) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 439, 577, 413 is 1.
Step 1: Since 577 > 439, we apply the division lemma to 577 and 439, to get
577 = 439 x 1 + 138
Step 2: Since the reminder 439 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 138 and 439, to get
439 = 138 x 3 + 25
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 138 and the new remainder 25, and apply the division lemma to get
138 = 25 x 5 + 13
We consider the new divisor 25 and the new remainder 13,and apply the division lemma to get
25 = 13 x 1 + 12
We consider the new divisor 13 and the new remainder 12,and apply the division lemma to get
13 = 12 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 12 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
12 = 1 x 12 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 439 and 577 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(12,1) = HCF(13,12) = HCF(25,13) = HCF(138,25) = HCF(439,138) = HCF(577,439) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 413 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 413 and 1, to get
413 = 1 x 413 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 413 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(413,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
