Answer:
Rs 18.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Three different persons buy some note books for rs 92.50 ,129.50 and 166.50. the maximum price of the notebook is?
To find this we need to find HCF ( highest common Factor)
As all amount ending with .5 so book price is also ending with .5
We will find HCF , by multiplying each number with 10 to make it integers and then divide the result by 10
92.5 * 10 = 925
129.5 * 10 = 1295
166.5 * 10 = 1665
925 = 5 * 5 * 37
1295 = 5 * 7 * 37
1665 = 3 * 3 * 5 * 37
5 * 37 is HCF = 5 * 37 = 185
dividing by 10 = 185/10 = 18.5
Maximum price of book = Rs 18.5
