The greatest number that will divide 172,205 and 304 leaving the same remainder in each case is HCF ((205-172), (304-205), (304-172)) = HCF of 33, 99, and 132 33=31x11 99=3 x 3 x 11 132=3 x 2 x 2 x11 Required number =3 x 11=33
Convert first all terms into cm.i.e. 1575 cm, 1125cm, 765cm.Now whenever we need to calculate this type of question, we need to find the HCF.HCF of above terms is 255.
