HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 707, 908, 613, 783 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 707, 908, 613, 783 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 707, 908, 613, 783 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 707, 908, 613, 783 is 1.
HCF(707, 908, 613, 783) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 707, 908, 613, 783 is 1.
Step 1: Since 908 > 707, we apply the division lemma to 908 and 707, to get
908 = 707 x 1 + 201
Step 2: Since the reminder 707 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 201 and 707, to get
707 = 201 x 3 + 104
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 201 and the new remainder 104, and apply the division lemma to get
201 = 104 x 1 + 97
We consider the new divisor 104 and the new remainder 97,and apply the division lemma to get
104 = 97 x 1 + 7
We consider the new divisor 97 and the new remainder 7,and apply the division lemma to get
97 = 7 x 13 + 6
We consider the new divisor 7 and the new remainder 6,and apply the division lemma to get
7 = 6 x 1 + 1
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 707 and 908 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(6,1) = HCF(7,6) = HCF(97,7) = HCF(104,97) = HCF(201,104) = HCF(707,201) = HCF(908,707) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 613 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 613 and 1, to get
613 = 1 x 613 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 613 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(613,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 783 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 783 and 1, to get
783 = 1 x 783 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 783 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(783,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
