HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 880, 369, 858, 570 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 880, 369, 858, 570 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 880, 369, 858, 570 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 880, 369, 858, 570 is 1.
HCF(880, 369, 858, 570) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 880, 369, 858, 570 is 1.
Step 1: Since 880 > 369, we apply the division lemma to 880 and 369, to get
880 = 369 x 2 + 142
Step 2: Since the reminder 369 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 142 and 369, to get
369 = 142 x 2 + 85
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 142 and the new remainder 85, and apply the division lemma to get
142 = 85 x 1 + 57
We consider the new divisor 85 and the new remainder 57,and apply the division lemma to get
85 = 57 x 1 + 28
We consider the new divisor 57 and the new remainder 28,and apply the division lemma to get
57 = 28 x 2 + 1
We consider the new divisor 28 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
28 = 1 x 28 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 880 and 369 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(28,1) = HCF(57,28) = HCF(85,57) = HCF(142,85) = HCF(369,142) = HCF(880,369) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 858 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 858 and 1, to get
858 = 1 x 858 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 858 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(858,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 570 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 570 and 1, to get
570 = 1 x 570 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 570 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(570,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.

2. what is the HCF of 880, 369, 858, 570?
Answer: HCF of 880, 369, 858, 570 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 880, 369, 858, 570 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 880, 369, 858, 570 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
