Problems on H.C.F and L.C.M
Six bells commence tolling together and toll at intervals of 2, 4, 6, 8 10 and 12 seconds respectively. In 30 minutes, how many times do they toll together ?
L.C.M. of 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 is 120. So, the bells will toll together after every 120 seconds(2 minutes). In 30 minutes, they will toll together 30 + 1 = 16 times. 2
The number students in each room = HCF of 70,98 and 126 =14 In each room , maximum 14 students can be seated. Total number students = 70 + 98 +126 =294 Number of rooms required = 294/14 =21
