Greatest length of the string that is to be cut from the bundle can be found by taking H.C.F of all the three bundle lengths
Three lengths are 392m, 308m, 490m
Factors of 392 = 2x2x2x7x7
Factors of 308 = 2x2x7x11
Factors of 490 = 2x5x7x7
Common factors of the three are: 2 and 7
Therefore, H.C.F = 2x7 = 14
So, the strings in each bundle can be cut into 14m so that no string is 14m so that no string is left out.
