HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 907, 573, 107 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 907, 573, 107 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 907, 573, 107 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 907, 573, 107 is 1.
HCF(907, 573, 107) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 907, 573, 107 is 1.
Step 1: Since 907 > 573, we apply the division lemma to 907 and 573, to get
907 = 573 x 1 + 334
Step 2: Since the reminder 573 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 334 and 573, to get
573 = 334 x 1 + 239
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 334 and the new remainder 239, and apply the division lemma to get
334 = 239 x 1 + 95
We consider the new divisor 239 and the new remainder 95,and apply the division lemma to get
239 = 95 x 2 + 49
We consider the new divisor 95 and the new remainder 49,and apply the division lemma to get
95 = 49 x 1 + 46
We consider the new divisor 49 and the new remainder 46,and apply the division lemma to get
49 = 46 x 1 + 3
We consider the new divisor 46 and the new remainder 3,and apply the division lemma to get
46 = 3 x 15 + 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 907 and 573 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(46,3) = HCF(49,46) = HCF(95,49) = HCF(239,95) = HCF(334,239) = HCF(573,334) = HCF(907,573) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 107 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 107 and 1, to get
107 = 1 x 107 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 107 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(107,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
