Question 67

Three different containers contain differeose nt quantities of a mixture of milk and water, wh measurements are 403 kg, 434 kg and 465 kg. What biggest measure must be there to measure all the different quantities exactly?

Solution

Different containers contain different quantities of a mixture of milk and water, with measurements are 403 kg, 434 kg and 465 kg

Required answer = HCF of measurements of 403, 434 and 465

403 = 31 * 13

434 = 31*7*2

465 = 31*5*3

HCF = 31

So, biggest measure must be there to measure all the different quantities exactly = 31 kg.
