Question

there are 350 cows and 450 buffaloes in a field .If these animals are to be grouped printing equal number of cows or buffaloes,then find the maximum number of animals in each group
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of cows = 350

No. of buffaloes = 450

Max. no. of animal in each group = HCF(350,450)

350 = 2×5×5×7 = 2×5²×7

450 = 2×3×3×5×5 = 2×3²×5²

HCF = lowest power of common factors = 5² = 25

So, max. no. of animals in each group = 25
