HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 581, 554, 935, 529 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 581, 554, 935, 529 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 581, 554, 935, 529 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 581, 554, 935, 529 is 1.
HCF(581, 554, 935, 529) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 581, 554, 935, 529 is 1.
Step 1: Since 581 > 554, we apply the division lemma to 581 and 554, to get
581 = 554 x 1 + 27
Step 2: Since the reminder 554 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 27 and 554, to get
554 = 27 x 20 + 14
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 27 and the new remainder 14, and apply the division lemma to get
27 = 14 x 1 + 13
We consider the new divisor 14 and the new remainder 13,and apply the division lemma to get
14 = 13 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 13 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
13 = 1 x 13 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 581 and 554 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(13,1) = HCF(14,13) = HCF(27,14) = HCF(554,27) = HCF(581,554) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 935 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 935 and 1, to get
935 = 1 x 935 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 935 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(935,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 529 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 529 and 1, to get
529 = 1 x 529 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 529 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(529,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
