1.	The length, breadth and height of a room are 825 cm, 675 cm and 450 cm respectively. Find the longest tape which can measure the three dimensions of the room exactly.
Answer» Length = 825 cm = 3 × 5 × 5 × 11 Breadth = 675 cm = 3 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5 Height = 450 cm = 2 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5 Longest tape = HCF of 825, 675, and 450 = 3 × 5 × 5 = 75 cm Therefore, the longest tape is 75 cm.

The length, breadth and height of a room are 825 cm, 675 cm and 450 cm respectively. Find the longest tape which can measure the three dimensions of the room exactly.

Answer»

Length = 825 cm = 3 × 5 × 5 × 11

Breadth = 675 cm = 3 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5

Height = 450 cm = 2 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5

Longest tape = HCF of 825, 675, and 450 = 3 × 5 × 5 = 75 cm

Therefore, the longest tape is 75 cm.
