HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 695, 447, 643, 672 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 695, 447, 643, 672 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 695, 447, 643, 672 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 695, 447, 643, 672 is 1.
HCF(695, 447, 643, 672) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 695, 447, 643, 672 is 1.
Step 1: Since 695 > 447, we apply the division lemma to 695 and 447, to get
695 = 447 x 1 + 248
Step 2: Since the reminder 447 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 248 and 447, to get
447 = 248 x 1 + 199
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 248 and the new remainder 199, and apply the division lemma to get
248 = 199 x 1 + 49
We consider the new divisor 199 and the new remainder 49,and apply the division lemma to get
199 = 49 x 4 + 3
We consider the new divisor 49 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
49 = 3 x 16 + 1
We consider the new divisor 3 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
3 = 1 x 3 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 695 and 447 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(49,3) = HCF(199,49) = HCF(248,199) = HCF(447,248) = HCF(695,447) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 643 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 643 and 1, to get
643 = 1 x 643 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 643 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(643,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 672 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 672 and 1, to get
672 = 1 x 672 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 672 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(672,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.

2. what is the HCF of 695, 447, 643, 672?
Answer: HCF of 695, 447, 643, 672 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 695, 447, 643, 672 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 695, 447, 643, 672 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
