HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 910, 347, 380 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 910, 347, 380 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 910, 347, 380 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 910, 347, 380 is 1.
HCF(910, 347, 380) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 910, 347, 380 is 1.
Step 1: Since 910 > 347, we apply the division lemma to 910 and 347, to get
910 = 347 x 2 + 216
Step 2: Since the reminder 347 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 216 and 347, to get
347 = 216 x 1 + 131
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 216 and the new remainder 131, and apply the division lemma to get
216 = 131 x 1 + 85
We consider the new divisor 131 and the new remainder 85,and apply the division lemma to get
131 = 85 x 1 + 46
We consider the new divisor 85 and the new remainder 46,and apply the division lemma to get
85 = 46 x 1 + 39
We consider the new divisor 46 and the new remainder 39,and apply the division lemma to get
46 = 39 x 1 + 7
We consider the new divisor 39 and the new remainder 7,and apply the division lemma to get
39 = 7 x 5 + 4
We consider the new divisor 7 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
7 = 4 x 1 + 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 910 and 347 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(3,1) = HCF(4,3) = HCF(7,4) = HCF(39,7) = HCF(46,39) = HCF(85,46) = HCF(131,85) = HCF(216,131) = HCF(347,216) = HCF(910,347) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 380 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 380 and 1, to get
380 = 1 x 380 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 380 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(380,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
