HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 529, 415, 735 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 529, 415, 735 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 529, 415, 735 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 529, 415, 735 is 1.
HCF(529, 415, 735) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 529, 415, 735 is 1.
Step 1: Since 529 > 415, we apply the division lemma to 529 and 415, to get
529 = 415 x 1 + 114
Step 2: Since the reminder 415 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 114 and 415, to get
415 = 114 x 3 + 73
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 114 and the new remainder 73, and apply the division lemma to get
114 = 73 x 1 + 41
We consider the new divisor 73 and the new remainder 41,and apply the division lemma to get
73 = 41 x 1 + 32
We consider the new divisor 41 and the new remainder 32,and apply the division lemma to get
41 = 32 x 1 + 9
We consider the new divisor 32 and the new remainder 9,and apply the division lemma to get
32 = 9 x 3 + 5
We consider the new divisor 9 and the new remainder 5,and apply the division lemma to get
9 = 5 x 1 + 4
We consider the new divisor 5 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
5 = 4 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 4 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
4 = 1 x 4 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 529 and 415 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(4,1) = HCF(5,4) = HCF(9,5) = HCF(32,9) = HCF(41,32) = HCF(73,41) = HCF(114,73) = HCF(415,114) = HCF(529,415) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 735 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 735 and 1, to get
735 = 1 x 735 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 735 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(735,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
