Number of books of English = 780 Number of books of Science = 364 780 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 13 364 = 2 × 2 × 7 × 13 ∴ The HCF of 780 and 364 = 2 × 2 × 13 = 52

Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
It has asked minimum number of books per shelves and hasn't mentioned the limit of number of shelves so the most logical answer would be 1 book per shelf.... please any criticism is appreciated because if any logic is not opposed it would never be a good one. It has asked LCF not HCF, and LCF of any group of numbers is 1.(LCF= Lowest Common Factor)
