HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 709, 516, 73, 193 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 709, 516, 73, 193 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 709, 516, 73, 193 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 709, 516, 73, 193 is 1.
HCF(709, 516, 73, 193) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 709, 516, 73, 193 is 1.
Step 1: Since 709 > 516, we apply the division lemma to 709 and 516, to get
709 = 516 x 1 + 193
Step 2: Since the reminder 516 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 193 and 516, to get
516 = 193 x 2 + 130
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 193 and the new remainder 130, and apply the division lemma to get
193 = 130 x 1 + 63
We consider the new divisor 130 and the new remainder 63,and apply the division lemma to get
130 = 63 x 2 + 4
We consider the new divisor 63 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
63 = 4 x 15 + 3
We consider the new divisor 4 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
4 = 3 x 1 + 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 709 and 516 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(4,3) = HCF(63,4) = HCF(130,63) = HCF(193,130) = HCF(516,193) = HCF(709,516) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 73 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 73 and 1, to get
73 = 1 x 73 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 73 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(73,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 193 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 193 and 1, to get
193 = 1 x 193 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 193 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(193,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
