2. A trader has three bundles of strings of the lengths 330m, 435m, and 375m
respectively. The string in three bundles is cut into pieces of equal lengths so that no
string is left over. What is the greatest possible length of each piece?
3. Draw a right angled A XYZ in which hypotenuse is 6.2 cm and ((XZ)=3.4 cm.
4. (x-10° and (x + 40) are the measures of the complementary angles. Find the value
of x and hence find the measures of each angle,

Step-by-step explanation:
The required answer is quite simply the gcd of these numbers 392, 308 and 490. If a big string needs to be cut into pieces with nothing left the cut string lengths need to divide the original string length. By construction of the question, it then asks for largest common divisor of all three numbers here.
Note that 392 = 2*2*2*7*7, 308 = 2*2*7*11,490=2*5*7*7
Then gcd = 2*7 = 14
No implicit or explicit guarantees of correctness of the above, use it anywhere you like but at your own risk.
