Answer 1

Correct Question

An army contingent of 616 members is to march behind an army band of 32 members in a parade. The two groups are in the same number of columnsm. What is the maximum number of columns in which they can march.

AnswEr:

The Maximum number of columns in which they can march = HCF (616, 32)

$\bf{\underline{\sf{\blue{Now \; By\; Using\; Euclid's \;division\; Algorithm}}}}$

$:\implies\sf\; 616\; is \;Greater\; than \;32$

When we divide 616 by 32 We get remainder 8 and quotient 32.

$:\implies\sf\; 616 = 32 \times\; 19 + 8$

$\rule{150}3$

Here, Remainder is not equal to zero. Again applying Euclid's Division Algorithm.

Now, Divide 32 by 8 we get remainder 0 and quotient 4.

$:\implies\sf\;32 \times\; 4 + 0$

Here we can see that remainder is 0. so, we conclude 8 is the HCF.

The Maximum number of columns in which the they can march is 8.

$\rule{150}3$
