HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 594, 810, 139 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 594, 810, 139 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 594, 810, 139 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 594, 810, 139 is 1.
HCF(594, 810, 139) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 594, 810, 139 is 1.
Step 1: Since 810 > 594, we apply the division lemma to 810 and 594, to get
810 = 594 x 1 + 216
Step 2: Since the reminder 594 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 216 and 594, to get
594 = 216 x 2 + 162
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 216 and the new remainder 162, and apply the division lemma to get
216 = 162 x 1 + 54
We consider the new divisor 162 and the new remainder 54, and apply the division lemma to get
162 = 54 x 3 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 54, the HCF of 594 and 810 is 54
Notice that 54 = HCF(162,54) = HCF(216,162) = HCF(594,216) = HCF(810,594) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 139 > 54, we apply the division lemma to 139 and 54, to get
139 = 54 x 2 + 31
Step 2: Since the reminder 54 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 31 and 54, to get
54 = 31 x 1 + 23
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 31 and the new remainder 23, and apply the division lemma to get
31 = 23 x 1 + 8
We consider the new divisor 23 and the new remainder 8,and apply the division lemma to get
23 = 8 x 2 + 7
We consider the new divisor 8 and the new remainder 7,and apply the division lemma to get
8 = 7 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 7 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
7 = 1 x 7 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 54 and 139 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(7,1) = HCF(8,7) = HCF(23,8) = HCF(31,23) = HCF(54,31) = HCF(139,54) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
