The students of three sections of a class have to stand in rows. Each row has an equal number of If there are 24,36 and 60 students in three sections, find the maximum number of students in each row.
Given: Number of students from three sections are 24 , 36 , 60
Each row has equal number of students.
To find: The maximum number of students in each row , find H C F of 24 , 36 , 60
Solution:
Factors of 24 - 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 6 , 8 , 12 , 24
Factors of 36 - 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 6 , 9 , 12 , 18 , 36
Factors of 60 - 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ,5 , 6 , 10 , 12 , 15 , 20 , 30 , 60
Highest Common Factor of 24 , 36 , 60 is 12
