HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 619, 471, 182, 59 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 619, 471, 182, 59 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 619, 471, 182, 59 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 619, 471, 182, 59 is 1.
HCF(619, 471, 182, 59) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 619, 471, 182, 59 is 1.
Step 1: Since 619 > 471, we apply the division lemma to 619 and 471, to get
619 = 471 x 1 + 148
Step 2: Since the reminder 471 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 148 and 471, to get
471 = 148 x 3 + 27
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 148 and the new remainder 27, and apply the division lemma to get
148 = 27 x 5 + 13
We consider the new divisor 27 and the new remainder 13,and apply the division lemma to get
27 = 13 x 2 + 1
We consider the new divisor 13 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
13 = 1 x 13 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 619 and 471 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(13,1) = HCF(27,13) = HCF(148,27) = HCF(471,148) = HCF(619,471) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 182 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 182 and 1, to get
182 = 1 x 182 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 182 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(182,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 59 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 59 and 1, to get
59 = 1 x 59 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 59 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(59,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.

2. what is the HCF of 619, 471, 182, 59?
Answer: HCF of 619, 471, 182, 59 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 619, 471, 182, 59 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 619, 471, 182, 59 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
