HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 533, 410, 807 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 533, 410, 807 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 533, 410, 807 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 533, 410, 807 is 1.
HCF(533, 410, 807) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 533, 410, 807 is 1.
Step 1: Since 533 > 410, we apply the division lemma to 533 and 410, to get
533 = 410 x 1 + 123
Step 2: Since the reminder 410 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 123 and 410, to get
410 = 123 x 3 + 41
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 123 and the new remainder 41, and apply the division lemma to get
123 = 41 x 3 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 41, the HCF of 533 and 410 is 41
Notice that 41 = HCF(123,41) = HCF(410,123) = HCF(533,410) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 807 > 41, we apply the division lemma to 807 and 41, to get
807 = 41 x 19 + 28
Step 2: Since the reminder 41 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 28 and 41, to get
41 = 28 x 1 + 13
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 28 and the new remainder 13, and apply the division lemma to get
28 = 13 x 2 + 2
We consider the new divisor 13 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
13 = 2 x 6 + 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 41 and 807 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(13,2) = HCF(28,13) = HCF(41,28) = HCF(807,41) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
Answer: Euclid's Division Algorithm is a technique to compute the Highest Common Factor (HCF) of given positive integers.
2. what is the HCF of 533, 410, 807?
Answer: HCF of 533, 410, 807 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 533, 410, 807 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 533, 410, 807 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
