Question

8) Three containers hold 108, 36 and 90 litres of water. Find the maximum capacity of a bucket
which can measure the water in all three containers an exact number of times.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 540 litres. By taking out the LCM of the capacity of the three containers.

Step-by-step explanation:

108 = 2×2×3×3×3

36 = 2×2×3×3

90 = 2×3×3×5

LCM (108, 36, 90) = 2×2×3×3×3×5

                             = 540

Answer 2

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

find the h.c.f of 180,36 and 90

180:2×2×5×3×3

36: 2×2×3×3

90 :2×5×3×3

h.c.f 2×3×3 :18 liters
