Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The capacity of required container will be obtained by finding the HCF of the capacity of tankers -
850 = 2×5×5×17
680 = 2×2×2×5×17
Common factors of 850 and 680 = {2,5,17}
HCF = 2×5×17
= 170
Answer:- The container which can measure petrol of either tank exactly must be of 170 litres.
