Answer:
The answer is 18 litres.
Step-by-step explanation:
You'll divide the largest digit which is 108 first with the second smallest digit which is 90 in here.
Divide 108 with 90, which number in 90 can divide 108? It is 1, 90 x 1 = 90.
Subtract 90 and 108, you'll get 18.
Now, divide 90 with 18( aka the remainder)
The number that is the nearest/is 90 is 18 x 5 = 90.
You get no remainder.
Divide 18 with 72, the nearest number to 72 is 18 x 6 = 72, there is no remainder.
The largest capacity of 90 litres, 108 litres and 72 litres is 18 litres.
