HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 909, 719, 204, 607 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 909, 719, 204, 607 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 909, 719, 204, 607 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 909, 719, 204, 607 is 1.
HCF(909, 719, 204, 607) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 909, 719, 204, 607 is 1.
Step 1: Since 909 > 719, we apply the division lemma to 909 and 719, to get
909 = 719 x 1 + 190
Step 2: Since the reminder 719 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 190 and 719, to get
719 = 190 x 3 + 149
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 190 and the new remainder 149, and apply the division lemma to get
190 = 149 x 1 + 41
We consider the new divisor 149 and the new remainder 41,and apply the division lemma to get
149 = 41 x 3 + 26
We consider the new divisor 41 and the new remainder 26,and apply the division lemma to get
41 = 26 x 1 + 15
We consider the new divisor 26 and the new remainder 15,and apply the division lemma to get
26 = 15 x 1 + 11
We consider the new divisor 15 and the new remainder 11,and apply the division lemma to get
15 = 11 x 1 + 4
We consider the new divisor 11 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
11 = 4 x 2 + 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 909 and 719 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(4,3) = HCF(11,4) = HCF(15,11) = HCF(26,15) = HCF(41,26) = HCF(149,41) = HCF(190,149) = HCF(719,190) = HCF(909,719) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 204 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 204 and 1, to get
204 = 1 x 204 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 204 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(204,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 607 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 607 and 1, to get
607 = 1 x 607 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 607 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(607,1) .
