Answer:
17 fruits in a heap
113 heaps in total
Step-by-step explanation:
we need to find out the HCF of 527, 646 and 748
527 = 17 × 31
646 = 2×17×19
748 = 2×2×11×17
HCF is 17
We have to arrange in heaps of 17 fruits
Total number of fruits = 527 + 646 + 748 = 1921 fruits
number of heaps formed = 1921 ÷ 17 = 113 heaps
