Answer:
27 students.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a question on GCD or rather the HCF.
We need to get the HCF of 81 and 108
We will use the prime factorization method.
We have :
81 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3
108 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3
The GCD of the two numbers is given by :
3 × 3 × 3 = 3³ = 27
Therefore the maximum number of students in the class is 27.
There are 27 students in the class.
