Question

2 tankers contain 850 litres and 680 litres of kerosene oil respectively .find the maximum capacity of a container which can measure the kerosene oil of both the tankers when used an exact number of times

Answer 1

Also to measure 680 liters of petrol the capacity in liters must also be divisor of 680. Therefore, the required maximum quantity of the container is the H.C.F of 850 L and 680 L. Hence the maximum quantity of the container = 170 L.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is 170 litre.

Step-by-step explanation:

Actually we have to determine the HCF of 680 & 850.

The HCF of these two numbers is 170.

If you divide the two numbers by 170 you'll get integer or exact number.

850/170=5,680/170=4.
