HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 613, 932, 367 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 613, 932, 367 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 613, 932, 367 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 613, 932, 367 is 1.
HCF(613, 932, 367) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 613, 932, 367 is 1.
Step 1: Since 932 > 613, we apply the division lemma to 932 and 613, to get
932 = 613 x 1 + 319
Step 2: Since the reminder 613 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 319 and 613, to get
613 = 319 x 1 + 294
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 319 and the new remainder 294, and apply the division lemma to get
319 = 294 x 1 + 25
We consider the new divisor 294 and the new remainder 25,and apply the division lemma to get
294 = 25 x 11 + 19
We consider the new divisor 25 and the new remainder 19,and apply the division lemma to get
25 = 19 x 1 + 6
We consider the new divisor 19 and the new remainder 6,and apply the division lemma to get
19 = 6 x 3 + 1
We consider the new divisor 6 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
6 = 1 x 6 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 613 and 932 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(6,1) = HCF(19,6) = HCF(25,19) = HCF(294,25) = HCF(319,294) = HCF(613,319) = HCF(932,613) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 367 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 367 and 1, to get
367 = 1 x 367 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 367 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(367,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.

2. what is the HCF of 613, 932, 367?
Answer: HCF of 613, 932, 367 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 613, 932, 367 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 613, 932, 367 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
