HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 919, 350, 419, 139 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 919, 350, 419, 139 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 919, 350, 419, 139 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 919, 350, 419, 139 is 1.
HCF(919, 350, 419, 139) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 919, 350, 419, 139 is 1.
Step 1: Since 919 > 350, we apply the division lemma to 919 and 350, to get
919 = 350 x 2 + 219
Step 2: Since the reminder 350 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 219 and 350, to get
350 = 219 x 1 + 131
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 219 and the new remainder 131, and apply the division lemma to get
219 = 131 x 1 + 88
We consider the new divisor 131 and the new remainder 88,and apply the division lemma to get
131 = 88 x 1 + 43
We consider the new divisor 88 and the new remainder 43,and apply the division lemma to get
88 = 43 x 2 + 2
We consider the new divisor 43 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
43 = 2 x 21 + 1
We consider the new divisor 2 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
2 = 1 x 2 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 919 and 350 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(43,2) = HCF(88,43) = HCF(131,88) = HCF(219,131) = HCF(350,219) = HCF(919,350) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 419 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 419 and 1, to get
419 = 1 x 419 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 419 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(419,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 139 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 139 and 1, to get
139 = 1 x 139 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 139 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(139,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
