HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 614, 443, 130 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 614, 443, 130 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 614, 443, 130 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 614, 443, 130 is 1.
HCF(614, 443, 130) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 614, 443, 130 is 1.
Step 1: Since 614 > 443, we apply the division lemma to 614 and 443, to get
614 = 443 x 1 + 171
Step 2: Since the reminder 443 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 171 and 443, to get
443 = 171 x 2 + 101
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 171 and the new remainder 101, and apply the division lemma to get
171 = 101 x 1 + 70
We consider the new divisor 101 and the new remainder 70,and apply the division lemma to get
101 = 70 x 1 + 31
We consider the new divisor 70 and the new remainder 31,and apply the division lemma to get
70 = 31 x 2 + 8
We consider the new divisor 31 and the new remainder 8,and apply the division lemma to get
31 = 8 x 3 + 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 614 and 443 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(7,1) = HCF(8,7) = HCF(31,8) = HCF(70,31) = HCF(101,70) = HCF(171,101) = HCF(443,171) = HCF(614,443) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 130 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 130 and 1, to get
130 = 1 x 130 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 130 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(130,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.

2. what is the HCF of 614, 443, 130?
Answer: HCF of 614, 443, 130 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 614, 443, 130 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 614, 443, 130 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
