HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 467, 757, 190 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 467, 757, 190 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 467, 757, 190 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 467, 757, 190 is 1.
HCF(467, 757, 190) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 467, 757, 190 is 1.
Step 1: Since 757 > 467, we apply the division lemma to 757 and 467, to get
757 = 467 x 1 + 290
Step 2: Since the reminder 467 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 290 and 467, to get
467 = 290 x 1 + 177
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 290 and the new remainder 177, and apply the division lemma to get
290 = 177 x 1 + 113
We consider the new divisor 177 and the new remainder 113,and apply the division lemma to get
177 = 113 x 1 + 64
We consider the new divisor 113 and the new remainder 64,and apply the division lemma to get
113 = 64 x 1 + 49
We consider the new divisor 64 and the new remainder 49,and apply the division lemma to get
64 = 49 x 1 + 15
We consider the new divisor 49 and the new remainder 15,and apply the division lemma to get
49 = 15 x 3 + 4
We consider the new divisor 15 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
15 = 4 x 3 + 3
We consider the new divisor 4 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
4 = 3 x 1 + 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 467 and 757 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(4,3) = HCF(15,4) = HCF(49,15) = HCF(64,49) = HCF(113,64) = HCF(177,113) = HCF(290,177) = HCF(467,290) = HCF(757,467) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 190 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 190 and 1, to get
190 = 1 x 190 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 190 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(190,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
