HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 693, 574, 454, 593 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 693, 574, 454, 593 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 693, 574, 454, 593 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 693, 574, 454, 593 is 1.
HCF(693, 574, 454, 593) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 693, 574, 454, 593 is 1.
Step 1: Since 693 > 574, we apply the division lemma to 693 and 574, to get
693 = 574 x 1 + 119
Step 2: Since the reminder 574 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 119 and 574, to get
574 = 119 x 4 + 98
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 119 and the new remainder 98, and apply the division lemma to get
119 = 98 x 1 + 21
We consider the new divisor 98 and the new remainder 21,and apply the division lemma to get
98 = 21 x 4 + 14
We consider the new divisor 21 and the new remainder 14,and apply the division lemma to get
21 = 14 x 1 + 7
We consider the new divisor 14 and the new remainder 7,and apply the division lemma to get
14 = 7 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 7, the HCF of 693 and 574 is 7
Notice that 7 = HCF(14,7) = HCF(21,14) = HCF(98,21) = HCF(119,98) = HCF(574,119) = HCF(693,574) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 454 > 7, we apply the division lemma to 454 and 7, to get
454 = 7 x 64 + 6
Step 2: Since the reminder 7 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 6 and 7, to get
7 = 6 x 1 + 1
Step 3: 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 7 and 454 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(6,1) = HCF(7,6) = HCF(454,7) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 593 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 593 and 1, to get
593 = 1 x 593 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 593 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(593,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
