HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 56, 85, 813, 828 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 56, 85, 813, 828 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 56, 85, 813, 828 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 56, 85, 813, 828 is 1.
HCF(56, 85, 813, 828) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 56, 85, 813, 828 is 1.
Step 1: Since 85 > 56, we apply the division lemma to 85 and 56, to get
85 = 56 x 1 + 29
Step 2: Since the reminder 56 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 29 and 56, to get
56 = 29 x 1 + 27
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 29 and the new remainder 27, and apply the division lemma to get
29 = 27 x 1 + 2
We consider the new divisor 27 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
27 = 2 x 13 + 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 56 and 85 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(27,2) = HCF(29,27) = HCF(56,29) = HCF(85,56) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 813 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 813 and 1, to get
813 = 1 x 813 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 813 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(813,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 828 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 828 and 1, to get
828 = 1 x 828 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 828 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(828,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?

2. what is the HCF of 56, 85, 813, 828?
Answer: HCF of 56, 85, 813, 828 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 56, 85, 813, 828 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 56, 85, 813, 828 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
