Question

12. The students of three classes can be made to stand into rows having same
number of students. There are 24, 36 and 60 students in three classes. How
many maximum number of students will stand in each row?​

Answer 1

Answer:

maximum number of student in each row 6

Answer 2

No.of students in-class 1 = 24

No.of students in-class 2 = 36

No.of students in-class 3 =60

To,solve this we have to find HCF of 24,35,60.

24=2x2x2x3

36=2x2x3x3

60=2x2x3x5

Here,

the common factors are 2,2,3.

Now,

HCF=Product of all the common prime factors of24,36,60.

HCF=2x2x3

HCF=12

Hence, 12 students can be made to stand into each row.
