HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 682, 799, 828, 100 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 682, 799, 828, 100 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 682, 799, 828, 100 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 682, 799, 828, 100 is 1.
HCF(682, 799, 828, 100) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 682, 799, 828, 100 is 1.
Step 1: Since 799 > 682, we apply the division lemma to 799 and 682, to get
799 = 682 x 1 + 117
Step 2: Since the reminder 682 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 117 and 682, to get
682 = 117 x 5 + 97
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 117 and the new remainder 97, and apply the division lemma to get
117 = 97 x 1 + 20
We consider the new divisor 97 and the new remainder 20,and apply the division lemma to get
97 = 20 x 4 + 17
We consider the new divisor 20 and the new remainder 17,and apply the division lemma to get
20 = 17 x 1 + 3
We consider the new divisor 17 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
17 = 3 x 5 + 2
We consider the new divisor 3 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
3 = 2 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 2 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
2 = 1 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 682 and 799 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(3,2) = HCF(17,3) = HCF(20,17) = HCF(97,20) = HCF(117,97) = HCF(682,117) = HCF(799,682) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 828 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 828 and 1, to get
828 = 1 x 828 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 828 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(828,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 100 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 100 and 1, to get
100 = 1 x 100 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 100 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(100,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
