band of 189 members. The two groups have to march in the same number of columns.

What is the maximum number of columns in which they can march?​

Answer 1

Come on,You will have to take the H.C.F. of 594 and 189.

It can either be by Euclids Division Algorithm or by Prime factorisation.

Answer 2

Answer:

The maximum number of columns in which they can march is 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

• In a school annual day function parade, a group of 594 students need to march behind the band of 189 members.
• The two groups have to march in the same number of columns.

To Find:

• The maximum number of columns in which they can march.

Solution:

Maximum number columns in parade = H.C.F of 594 and 189

594 = 2×3×3×3×11

189 = 3×3×3×7

H.C.F = 3×3×3

H.C.F = 27

Hence, the maximum number of columns in which they can march is 27.
