biggest possible size that can be cut out of a piece of
cardboard 48 cm broad and 64 cm long? What would
be the length of each square?​

Answer 1

Answer:

please say the question properly.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, Length of rectangular cardboard=64cm

And breadth=48cm

Since,we have to cut maximum number of square of same sizes out of the cardboard.

So ,the length of each square=HCF of 64 and 48

By prime factorisation method

64=2^6

48=2^4×3

HCF=2^4=16cm. Ans(1)

Hence, the number of maximum number of squares cut out from the cardboard

=(Area of rectangular cardboard)/(Area of a square)

=(l×b)/(side×side)

=(64×48)/(16×16)

=4×3

=12 Squares.,And.
