Answers
Answer:
1. 16
HCF of 624 and 32 =16
2. 12
HCF of 228 and 468 = 12
3. 4
HCF(624, 32, 228, 468) = 4
Alternatively we can find,
HCF (16, 12) = 4
Thus (b) is correct option.
Given :
Army contingent of 624 members behind an army band of 32 members.
CRPF troops with 468 soldiers behind the 228 members of bikers.
To Find : maximum number of columns in which the army troop can march?
maximum number of columns in which the CRPF troop can march?
maximum number of columns in which total army troop and CRPF troop together can march past?
Solution:
army troop
624
32
HCF of 624 and 32
624 = 32 x 19 + 16
32 = 16 x 2 + 0
16 is the HCF
maximum number of columns in which the army troop can march = 16
CRPF troop
468
228
HCF
468 = 228 x 2 + 12
228 = 19 x 12 + 0
12 is the HCF
maximum number of columns in which the CRPF troop can march = 4
HCF of 12 and 16
16 = 12 x 1 + 4
12 = 4 x 3 + 0
4 is HCF
maximum number of columns in which total army troop and CRPF troop together can march = 4
468 = 16 x 29 + 4
228 = 16 x 14 + 4
Hence 4 numbers of CRPF soldiers and the number of bikers should be subtracted so that their maximum number of column is equal to the maximum number of column of army troop
(a) 4 Soldiers and 4 Bikers
468 = 16 x 30 - 12
228 = 16 x 15 - 12
Hence 12 numbers of CRPF soldiers and the number of bikers should be added so that their maximum number of column is equal to the maximum number of column of army troop
(b) 12 Soldiers and 12 Bikers
