Step-by-step explanation:
The price of the exercise books given in both the cases are the cost price of the books which are Rs. 80.50 and Rs. 57.50
So, to find the maximum price of an exercise book we will find the H.C.F of the two cost prices given i.e., H.C.F. of 8050 and 5750 ...... (converted both the prices in terms of paise for easy calculations)
Factors of 8050 and 5750
8050 = 2 × 5 × 5 × 7 × 23
5750 = 2 × 5 × 5 × 5 × 23
∴ H.C.F. (8050 and 5750) = 2 × 5 × 5 × 23 = 1150
Since we get the H.C.F. as 1150 paise so by converting in terms of rupees, the maximum price will be Rs. 11.50.
Thus, The maximum price of an exercise book is bold Rs. 11.50
The maximum price of an exercise book is Rs.11.50.
