Question

If large square beds of equal size are to be made for planting vegetables on a land 18 metres long and 15 metres wide, what is the maximum possible length of each bed? *


​

Answer 1

Answer:

3m

Step-by-step explanation:

LENGTH OF THE PLOT = 18m

BREADTH OF THE PLOT= 15m

The maximum possible length of each square bed is the HCF of length and breadth

Factors of 18= 1,2,3,6,9,18

Factors of 15= 1,3,5,15

common factors= 1,3

HCF of 18 and 15 = 3

thus , the maximum possible length of each square bed is 3m
