HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 910, 713, 336 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 910, 713, 336 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, 713, 336 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, 713, 336 is 1.
HCF(910, 713, 336) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 910, 713, 336 is 1.
Step 1: Since 910 > 713, we apply the division lemma to 910 and 713, to get
910 = 713 x 1 + 197
Step 2: Since the reminder 713 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 197 and 713, to get
713 = 197 x 3 + 122
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 197 and the new remainder 122, and apply the division lemma to get
197 = 122 x 1 + 75
We consider the new divisor 122 and the new remainder 75,and apply the division lemma to get
122 = 75 x 1 + 47
We consider the new divisor 75 and the new remainder 47,and apply the division lemma to get
75 = 47 x 1 + 28
We consider the new divisor 47 and the new remainder 28,and apply the division lemma to get
47 = 28 x 1 + 19
We consider the new divisor 28 and the new remainder 19,and apply the division lemma to get
28 = 19 x 1 + 9
We consider the new divisor 19 and the new remainder 9,and apply the division lemma to get
19 = 9 x 2 + 1
We consider the new divisor 9 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
9 = 1 x 9 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 910 and 713 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(9,1) = HCF(19,9) = HCF(28,19) = HCF(47,28) = HCF(75,47) = HCF(122,75) = HCF(197,122) = HCF(713,197) = HCF(910,713) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 336 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 336 and 1, to get
336 = 1 x 336 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 336 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(336,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
