HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 582, 922, 153, 880 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 582, 922, 153, 880 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 582, 922, 153, 880 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 582, 922, 153, 880 is 1.
HCF(582, 922, 153, 880) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 582, 922, 153, 880 is 1.
Step 1: Since 922 > 582, we apply the division lemma to 922 and 582, to get
922 = 582 x 1 + 340
Step 2: Since the reminder 582 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 340 and 582, to get
582 = 340 x 1 + 242
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 340 and the new remainder 242, and apply the division lemma to get
340 = 242 x 1 + 98
We consider the new divisor 242 and the new remainder 98,and apply the division lemma to get
242 = 98 x 2 + 46
We consider the new divisor 98 and the new remainder 46,and apply the division lemma to get
98 = 46 x 2 + 6
We consider the new divisor 46 and the new remainder 6,and apply the division lemma to get
46 = 6 x 7 + 4
We consider the new divisor 6 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
6 = 4 x 1 + 2
We consider the new divisor 4 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
4 = 2 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 2, the HCF of 582 and 922 is 2
Notice that 2 = HCF(4,2) = HCF(6,4) = HCF(46,6) = HCF(98,46) = HCF(242,98) = HCF(340,242) = HCF(582,340) = HCF(922,582) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 153 > 2, we apply the division lemma to 153 and 2, to get
153 = 2 x 76 + 1
Step 2: Since the reminder 2 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 1 and 2, 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 2 and 153 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(153,2) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 880 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 880 and 1, to get
880 = 1 x 880 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 880 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(880,1) .
