Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since , the same number of students are to be distributed in groups

we need to find the HCF of number of students in different groups

HCF(156,208,260)=52

156=2*2*3*13

208=2*2*2*2*13

280=2*2*5*13

HCF=2*2*13=52

Hence, 52 students can accommodate in each bus

So, Total number of Buses =

Total Students/52

= 624/52

=12
