Three sets of English, Hindi,and Urdu books are to be stacked in such a way that the books are stored subjectwise and the height of each stack is the same. The numbers of English, Hindi and Urdu books are 336, 192 and 144 respectively. Assuring that the books have that same thickness, determine the number of stacks of English, Hindi and Urdu books

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to arrange the books as required, we have to find the largest number that divides 96,240 and 336 exactly. Clearly, such a number is their HCF Computation of HCF of 96 and 240:

Clearly, HCF of 96 and 240 is 48.

Computation of HCF of 48 and 336:

Thus, HCF of 96,240 and 336 is 48.

Hence, there must be 48 books in each stack.

Now, Number of stacks of English books =

Number of books in each stack

Number of English books

​

=

48

96

​

=2

Number of stacks of Hindi books =

Number of books in each stack

Number of Hindi books

​

 =

48/240

​

=5

and, Number of stacks of Mathematics books =

No. of books in each stack

Number of Mathematics books

​

=

48/336

​

=7
