HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 913, 334, 824 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 913, 334, 824 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 913, 334, 824 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 913, 334, 824 is 1.
HCF(913, 334, 824) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 913, 334, 824 is 1.
Step 1: Since 913 > 334, we apply the division lemma to 913 and 334, to get
913 = 334 x 2 + 245
Step 2: Since the reminder 334 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 245 and 334, to get
334 = 245 x 1 + 89
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 245 and the new remainder 89, and apply the division lemma to get
245 = 89 x 2 + 67
We consider the new divisor 89 and the new remainder 67,and apply the division lemma to get
89 = 67 x 1 + 22
We consider the new divisor 67 and the new remainder 22,and apply the division lemma to get
67 = 22 x 3 + 1
We consider the new divisor 22 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
22 = 1 x 22 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 913 and 334 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(22,1) = HCF(67,22) = HCF(89,67) = HCF(245,89) = HCF(334,245) = HCF(913,334) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 824 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 824 and 1, to get
824 = 1 x 824 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 824 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(824,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
