HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 697, 143, 125, 814 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 697, 143, 125, 814 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 697, 143, 125, 814 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 697, 143, 125, 814 is 1.
HCF(697, 143, 125, 814) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 697, 143, 125, 814 is 1.
Step 1: Since 697 > 143, we apply the division lemma to 697 and 143, to get
697 = 143 x 4 + 125
Step 2: Since the reminder 143 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 125 and 143, to get
143 = 125 x 1 + 18
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 125 and the new remainder 18, and apply the division lemma to get
125 = 18 x 6 + 17
We consider the new divisor 18 and the new remainder 17,and apply the division lemma to get
18 = 17 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 17 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
17 = 1 x 17 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 697 and 143 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(17,1) = HCF(18,17) = HCF(125,18) = HCF(143,125) = HCF(697,143) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 125 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 125 and 1, to get
125 = 1 x 125 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 125 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(125,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 814 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 814 and 1, to get
814 = 1 x 814 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 814 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(814,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
