Question

Two bills of rs 6075 and rs 8505 respectively are to be paid separately by cheques of same amount. Find the largest possible amount of each cheque.

Answer 1

Answer:

1215 rs

Step-by-step explanation:

6075=5*5*3*3*3*3*3

8505=5*3*3*3*3*3*7

therefore the HCF of 6075 and 8505 = 5*3*3*3*3*3

                                                             =5*243

                                                              =1215

Thus the maximum possible amount of each cheque is 1215 rs
