HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 469, 519, 512, 295 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 469, 519, 512, 295 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 469, 519, 512, 295 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 469, 519, 512, 295 is 1.
HCF(469, 519, 512, 295) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 469, 519, 512, 295 is 1.
Step 1: Since 519 > 469, we apply the division lemma to 519 and 469, to get
519 = 469 x 1 + 50
Step 2: Since the reminder 469 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 50 and 469, to get
469 = 50 x 9 + 19
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 50 and the new remainder 19, and apply the division lemma to get
50 = 19 x 2 + 12
We consider the new divisor 19 and the new remainder 12,and apply the division lemma to get
19 = 12 x 1 + 7
We consider the new divisor 12 and the new remainder 7,and apply the division lemma to get
12 = 7 x 1 + 5
We consider the new divisor 7 and the new remainder 5,and apply the division lemma to get
7 = 5 x 1 + 2
We consider the new divisor 5 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
5 = 2 x 2 + 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 469 and 519 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(5,2) = HCF(7,5) = HCF(12,7) = HCF(19,12) = HCF(50,19) = HCF(469,50) = HCF(519,469) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 512 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 512 and 1, to get
512 = 1 x 512 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 512 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(512,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 295 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 295 and 1, to get
295 = 1 x 295 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 295 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(295,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
