Answer:
75 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the room = 8m 25cm = 825 cm
Breadth of the room = 6m 75cm = 675 cm
Height of the room = 4m 50cm = 450 cm
Prime factorization of 825, 675 and 450 are as follows:
825 = 3×5×5×11
675 = 3×3×3×5×5
450 = 2×3×3×5×5
Common factors = 3×5×5
H.C.F. = 75
Hence, H.C.F. of 825, 675 and 450 is 75.
Therefore the length of the longest tap is 75 cm which can measure the three dimensions of the room exactly.
