Question

a trader has three bundles of strings of lengths 330 m, 435 m and 375 m respectively. The string in three bundles is cut into equal pieces of equal lengths so that no string is left over. what is the greatest possible length of each piece​

Answer 1

To find the greatest possible length of each piece , we have to find the H.C.F of 330,435 and 375

→ 330 = 2×3×5×11

→ 435 = 3×5×29

→ 375 = 3×5×5×5

H.C.F of 330,435 and 375 = 3×5 = 15
