Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

207 note books and 299 pens

To find :-

Find The maximum number of students among whom 207 note books and 299 pens can be distributed in such a way that each student gets same number of notebooks and same number of pens?

Solution :-

Given number of note books = 207

Number of pens = 299

The required number is that the Maximum number of students among whom 207 note books and 299 pens can be distributed in such a way that each student gets same number of notebooks and same number of pens is their HCF

HCF of 299 and 207

207 can be written as 3×3×23

299 can be written as 13×23

The Greatest Common factor = 23

The HCF (277,209) = 23

Answer:-

The Maximum number of students among whom 207 note books and 299 pens can be distributed in such a way that each student gets same number of notebooks and same number of pens is 23

Used formulae:-

HCF:-

• The height common factor of two or more numbers ais their HCF

• HCF is also called GCD or GCF

• Divisor is also called Factor
