HCF Calculator using the Euclid Division Algorithm helps you to find the Highest common factor (HCF) easily for 97, 388, 414 i.e. 1 the largest integer that leaves a remainder zero for all numbers.
HCF of 97, 388, 414 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 97, 388, 414 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 97, 388, 414 is 1.
HCF(97, 388, 414) = 1
Highest common factor or Highest common divisor (hcd) can be calculated by Euclid's algotithm.
Highest common factor (HCF) of 97, 388, 414 is 1.
Step 1: Since 388 > 97, we apply the division lemma to 388 and 97, to get
388 = 97 x 4 + 0
The remainder has now become zero, so our procedure stops. Since the divisor at this stage is 97, the HCF of 97 and 388 is 97
Notice that 97 = HCF(388,97) .
We can take hcf of as 1st numbers and next number as another number to apply in Euclidean lemma
Step 1: Since 414 > 97, we apply the division lemma to 414 and 97, to get
414 = 97 x 4 + 26
Step 2: Since the reminder 97 ≠ 0, we apply division lemma to 26 and 97, to get
97 = 26 x 3 + 19
Step 3: We consider the new divisor 26 and the new remainder 19, and apply the division lemma to get
26 = 19 x 1 + 7
We consider the new divisor 19 and the new remainder 7,and apply the division lemma to get
19 = 7 x 2 + 5
We consider the new divisor 7 and the new remainder 5,and apply the division lemma to get
7 = 5 x 1 + 2
We consider the new divisor 5 and the new remainder 2,and apply the division lemma to get
5 = 2 x 2 + 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 97 and 414 is 1
Notice that 1 = HCF(2,1) = HCF(5,2) = HCF(7,5) = HCF(19,7) = HCF(26,19) = HCF(97,26) = HCF(414,97) .
Here are some samples of HCF using Euclid's Algorithm calculations.
