HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 593, 456, 713, 116 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 593, 456, 713, 116 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 593, 456, 713, 116 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 593, 456, 713, 116 is 1.
HCF(593, 456, 713, 116) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 593, 456, 713, 116 is 1.
Step 1: Since 593 > 456, we apply the division lemma to 593 and 456, to get
593 = 456 x 1 + 137
Step 2: Since the reminder 456 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 137 and 456, to get
456 = 137 x 3 + 45
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 137 and the new remainder 45, and apply the division lemma to get
137 = 45 x 3 + 2
We consider the new divisor 45 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
45 = 2 x 22 + 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 593 and 456 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(45,2) = HCF(137,45) = HCF(456,137) = HCF(593,456) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 713 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 713 and 1, to get
713 = 1 x 713 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 713 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(713,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 116 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 116 and 1, to get
116 = 1 x 116 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 116 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(116,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.

2. what is the HCF of 593, 456, 713, 116?
Answer: HCF of 593, 456, 713, 116 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 593, 456, 713, 116 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 593, 456, 713, 116 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
