Answer:
(Note that to answer this question we need to find the HCF to find the maximum no. of books in each stack.)
The number of English, Hindi and Math books are 96, 240 and 336 respectively
Step by step explanation
So, we need to find the H.C.F of 96, 240 and 336
HCF of the three numbers is 48.
Now divide the three numbers by the HCF to obtain the no. of stack of all the three books.
No. of stack of English book: 96/48 = 2 No. of stack of Hindi book: 240/48 = 5 No. of stock of Math book: 336/48 = 7
