Answer 1

Answer:

this question having wrong statement.

Answer 2

Answer:

First I thought the question was wrong because of some calculation error, but after some time I got the correct answer. I had the same question in my math worksheet.

Answer would be 25

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of participants in mathematics seminar = 60

No. of participants in physics seminar = 96

No. of participants in chemistry seminar = 144

HCF of 60, 96 and 144 = 2x2x3 = 12

12 participants can be seated in each room.

Total no. of participants / 12 = 60 + 96 + 144 / 12 = 300 / 12 = 25

Therefore, 25 rooms are required if in each room the same number of participants are to be seated and all of them are to be in same subject.
