16m=20m

Step-by-step explanation:

36 inches an the glitter paper

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the largest size Raman can cut the Shiny paper & Glitter paper so that both are equal in size , we have to find HCF(36,40) .

Factors of 36 = 2² × 3²

Factors of 40 = 2³ × 5

HCF(36,40) = 2² => 4

So both the shiny paper and glitter paper have to be cut into 4 inches each so that there is no wastage and all are equal length.
