HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 91, 694, 773 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 91, 694, 773 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 91, 694, 773 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 91, 694, 773 is 1.
HCF(91, 694, 773) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 91, 694, 773 is 1.
Step 1: Since 694 > 91, we apply the division lemma to 694 and 91, to get
694 = 91 x 7 + 57
Step 2: Since the reminder 91 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 57 and 91, to get
91 = 57 x 1 + 34
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 57 and the new remainder 34, and apply the division lemma to get
57 = 34 x 1 + 23
We consider the new divisor 34 and the new remainder 23,and apply the division lemma to get
34 = 23 x 1 + 11
We consider the new divisor 23 and the new remainder 11,and apply the division lemma to get
23 = 11 x 2 + 1
We consider the new divisor 11 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
11 = 1 x 11 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 91 and 694 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(11,1) = HCF(23,11) = HCF(34,23) = HCF(57,34) = HCF(91,57) = HCF(694,91) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 773 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 773 and 1, to get
773 = 1 x 773 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 773 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(773,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
1. What is the Euclid division algorithm?

2. what is the HCF of 91, 694, 773?
Answer: HCF of 91, 694, 773 is 1 the largest number that divides all the numbers leaving a remainder zero.
3. How to find HCF of 91, 694, 773 using Euclid's Algorithm?
Answer: For arbitrary numbers 91, 694, 773 apply Euclid’s Division Lemma in succession until you obtain a remainder zero. HCF is the remainder in the last but one step.
