Answer:
The greatest length possible to measure all the given lengths exactly must be 35 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
7m = 700cm
3m 85 cm = 385 cm
12 m 95 cm = 1295 cm
HCF of 700,385 and 1295 is 35.
700 = 35 × 5 × 2 × 2
385 = 35 × 11
1295 = 35 × 37
So to measure exactly, the greatest length we can use is 35cm.
