HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 475, 822, 748, 613 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 475, 822, 748, 613 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 475, 822, 748, 613 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 475, 822, 748, 613 is 1.
HCF(475, 822, 748, 613) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 475, 822, 748, 613 is 1.
Step 1: Since 822 > 475, we apply the division lemma to 822 and 475, to get
822 = 475 x 1 + 347
Step 2: Since the reminder 475 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 347 and 475, to get
475 = 347 x 1 + 128
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 347 and the new remainder 128, and apply the division lemma to get
347 = 128 x 2 + 91
We consider the new divisor 128 and the new remainder 91,and apply the division lemma to get
128 = 91 x 1 + 37
We consider the new divisor 91 and the new remainder 37,and apply the division lemma to get
91 = 37 x 2 + 17
We consider the new divisor 37 and the new remainder 17,and apply the division lemma to get
37 = 17 x 2 + 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 475 and 822 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(3,2) = HCF(17,3) = HCF(37,17) = HCF(91,37) = HCF(128,91) = HCF(347,128) = HCF(475,347) = HCF(822,475) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 748 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 748 and 1, to get
748 = 1 x 748 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 748 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(748,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 613 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 613 and 1, to get
613 = 1 x 613 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 613 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(613,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
