HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 754, 601, 313, 582 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 754, 601, 313, 582 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 754, 601, 313, 582 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 754, 601, 313, 582 is 1.
HCF(754, 601, 313, 582) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 754, 601, 313, 582 is 1.
Step 1: Since 754 > 601, we apply the division lemma to 754 and 601, to get
754 = 601 x 1 + 153
Step 2: Since the reminder 601 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 153 and 601, to get
601 = 153 x 3 + 142
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 153 and the new remainder 142, and apply the division lemma to get
153 = 142 x 1 + 11
We consider the new divisor 142 and the new remainder 11,and apply the division lemma to get
142 = 11 x 12 + 10
We consider the new divisor 11 and the new remainder 10,and apply the division lemma to get
11 = 10 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 10 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
10 = 1 x 10 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 754 and 601 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(10,1) = HCF(11,10) = HCF(142,11) = HCF(153,142) = HCF(601,153) = HCF(754,601) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 313 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 313 and 1, to get
313 = 1 x 313 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 313 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(313,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 582 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 582 and 1, to get
582 = 1 x 582 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 582 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(582,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
