Question

Jai and Leena are making sandwiches for a class picnic. They have 63 tomato slices, 84 cheese slices and 126 cucumber slices. What is the greatest number of sandwiches they can make if each sandwich has the same filling?

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey there!

In order to find the greatest number of sandwiches, we'll have to find the HCF(63,84,126)

Now,

63= 3²*7

84=2²*3*7

126=2*3²*7

So, HCF=7

Therefore, the greatest number of sandwiches they can make is 7.

Hope it helped!

Jai Hind!
