Answer:
H.C.F = 3 * 5 = 15 litres
Exact number of times it can measure in one container is 60/15 = 4
Exact number of times it can measure in second container is 165/15 = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
60, 165
Find H.C.F of 60, 165
60 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 5
165 = 5 * 3 * 11
H.C.F = 3 * 5 = 15 litres
Maximum capacity of a container which can measure the milk in each container = 15 litres
Exact number of times it can measure in one container is 60/15 = 4
Exact number of times it can measure in second container is 165/15 = 11
