HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 570, 730, 313 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 570, 730, 313 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 570, 730, 313 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 570, 730, 313 is 1.
HCF(570, 730, 313) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 570, 730, 313 is 1.
Step 1: Since 730 > 570, we apply the division lemma to 730 and 570, to get
730 = 570 x 1 + 160
Step 2: Since the reminder 570 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 160 and 570, to get
570 = 160 x 3 + 90
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 160 and the new remainder 90, and apply the division lemma to get
160 = 90 x 1 + 70
We consider the new divisor 90 and the new remainder 70,and apply the division lemma to get
90 = 70 x 1 + 20
We consider the new divisor 70 and the new remainder 20,and apply the division lemma to get
70 = 20 x 3 + 10
We consider the new divisor 20 and the new remainder 10,and apply the division lemma to get
20 = 10 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 10, the HCF of 570 and 730 is 10
Notice that 10 = HCF(20,10) = HCF(70,20) = HCF(90,70) = HCF(160,90) = HCF(570,160) = HCF(730,570) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 313 > 10, we apply the division lemma to 313 and 10, to get
313 = 10 x 31 + 3
Step 2: Since the reminder 10 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 3 and 10, to get
10 = 3 x 3 + 1
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 3 and the new remainder 1, and apply the division lemma to get
3 = 1 x 3 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 10 and 313 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(10,3) = HCF(313,10) .
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 570, 730, 313?
Answer: HCF of 570, 730, 313 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 570, 730, 313 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 570, 730, 313 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
