Question

2) Three tankers contain 520 litre
650 litres and 780 litres of petrol
respectively. Find the maximum
capacity of a container which can
measure the petrol of these three
tankers exactly
​

Answer 1

Answer:

1000 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the maximum unit here is 780litres,therefore a container of 1000litres can measure petrol of these three tankers exactly.

Answer 2

Answer:

130L

Step-by-step explanation:

we should find HCF of 520, 650,780

520 = 2×2×2×5×13

650 = 2×5×5×13

780 = 2×2×3×5×13

HCF = 2×5×13 = 130

therefore 130L is maximum capacity of container to measure exactly
