1. Apply Euclid Division
Algorithm in order to obtain
HCF of 2 given numbers in the
context of the given problem. A
worker needs to pack 350 kg of
rice and 150 kg of wheat in
bags such that each bag
weighs the same. Each bag
should either contain rice or
wheat. Which option shows the
correct steps to find the
greatest amount of rice/wheat
the worker can pack in each
bag?
Answers
Answer :-
The greatest amount of rice/wheat the worker can pack in each bag will be HCF of 350 kg of rice and 150 kg of wheat .
Finding HCF by Euclid Division Algorithm we get,
150 ) 350 ( 2
-300
50 ) 150 ( 3
-150
0
Since we gets remainder 0 , when quotient is 50 . therefore, HCF of 350 and 150 is 50 .
hence, wr can conclude that, The greatest amount of rice/wheat the worker can pack in each bag will be 50 kg .

SOLUTION
TO CHOOSE THE CORRECT OPTION
A worker needs to pack 350 kg of rice and 150 kg of wheat in bags such that each bag weighs the same. Each bag should either contain rice or wheat. Which option shows the correct steps to find the greatest amount of rice/wheat the worker can pack in each bag
Option : I
Step 1 : 350=2(150)+50
Step 2 : 150=3(50)+0
Step 3 : Greatest amount: 50 kg
Option : II
Step 1: 350=2(150)+50
Step 2: 150=2(50)+0
Step 3: Greatest amount: 50 kg
Option : III
Step 1: 350=2(150)+50
Step 2: 150=3(50)+0
Step 3: Greatest amount: 150 kg
Option : IV
Step 1: 350=2(150)+50
Step 2: 150=2(50)+0
Step 3: Greatest amount: 150 kg
EVALUATION
Here it is given that
A worker needs to pack 350 kg of rice and 150 kg of wheat in bags such that each bag weighs the same.
Each bag should either contain rice or wheat
Here the given weights are 350 kg and 150 kg
Now 350 > 150
We now find HCF step by step by using Euclid's division algorithm.
Step : 1
Step : 2
Step : 3
So HCF = 50
Greatest amount = 50 kg
FINAL ANSWER
Hence the correct option is
Option : I
Step 1 : 350=2(150)+50
Step 2 : 150=3(50)+0
Step 3 : Greatest amount: 50 kg
