HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 929, 633, 944, 324 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 929, 633, 944, 324 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 929, 633, 944, 324 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 929, 633, 944, 324 is 1.
HCF(929, 633, 944, 324) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 929, 633, 944, 324 is 1.
Step 1: Since 929 > 633, we apply the division lemma to 929 and 633, to get
929 = 633 x 1 + 296
Step 2: Since the reminder 633 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 296 and 633, to get
633 = 296 x 2 + 41
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 296 and the new remainder 41, and apply the division lemma to get
296 = 41 x 7 + 9
We consider the new divisor 41 and the new remainder 9,and apply the division lemma to get
41 = 9 x 4 + 5
We consider the new divisor 9 and the new remainder 5,and apply the division lemma to get
9 = 5 x 1 + 4
We consider the new divisor 5 and the new remainder 4,and apply the division lemma to get
5 = 4 x 1 + 1
We consider the new divisor 4 and the new remainder 1,and apply the division lemma to get
4 = 1 x 4 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 929 and 633 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(4,1) = HCF(5,4) = HCF(9,5) = HCF(41,9) = HCF(296,41) = HCF(633,296) = HCF(929,633) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 944 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 944 and 1, to get
944 = 1 x 944 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 944 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(944,1) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 324 > 1, we apply the division lemma to 324 and 1, to get
324 = 1 x 324 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 1, the HCF of 1 and 324 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(324,1) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
