HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 650, 663, 91 i.e. 13 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 650, 663, 91 is 13 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 650, 663, 91 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 650, 663, 91 is 13.
HCF(650, 663, 91) = 13
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 650, 663, 91 is 13.
Step 1: Since 663 > 650, we apply the division lemma to 663 and 650, to get
663 = 650 x 1 + 13
Step 2: Since the reminder 650 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 13 and 650, to get
650 = 13 x 50 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 13, the HCF of 650 and 663 is 13
Notice that 13 = HCF(650,13) = HCF(663,650) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 91 > 13, we apply the division lemma to 91 and 13, to get
91 = 13 x 7 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 13, the HCF of 13 and 91 is 13
Notice that 13 = HCF(91,13) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?
Answer: Euclid's Division Algorithm is a technique to compute the Highest Common Factor (HCF) of given positive integers.
2. what is the HCF of 650, 663, 91?
Answer: HCF of 650, 663, 91 is 13 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 650, 663, 91 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 650, 663, 91 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
