Answer:
First of all we will take the HCF of all but, before that we will convert them in a similar unit :
6m 30cm =6 X 100 + 30
=630cm
5m 85cm =5 X 100 + 85
=585cm
3m 60cm =3 X 100 + 60
=360cm
Now, lets take the HCF :
HCF of 630cm, 585cm, 360cm
= 45 cm

Step-by-step explanation:
Given the length breadth and height of a room are 6m 30cm, 5m 85cm and 3m 60cm respectively what will be the greatest length of a tape which can measures the dimensions of room exact number of times
- So the measurement length breadth and height of a room are given. So we have
- Length = 6m 30 cm
- Breadth = 5 m 85 cm
- Height = 3 m 60 cm
- So we need to make the units similar.so we have 1 m = 100 cm
- 6m = 600 cm
- 5 m = 500 cm
- 3 m = 300 cm
- Now we get
- Length = 600 + 30 = 630 cm
- Breadth = 500 + 85 = 585 cm
- Height = 300 + 60 = 360 cm
- Now we need to find the hcf of 630,585 and 360
- The factors are
- 630 = 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 7
- 585 = 3 x 3 x 5 x 13
- 360 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5
- So we have the highest common factor as 3 x 3 x 5 = 45
Therefore the greatest length of the tape is 45 cm
