Answer» Number of English books `=96` Number of Hindi books `=240` Number of Mathematics books `=336` Now, we have to find out the total number of stacks that can be formed when it is given that the books are of same thickness... For this we need to find out highest common factor of number of books that are 96, 240 and 336. HCF `=2*2*2*2*3 =48`Now divide the total number of books of each subject by HCF we will get the stack it will make Number of stacks that can be formed for English `=96/48=2` Number of stacks for Hindi `=240/48 = 5` Number of stacks for Mathematics `=336/48 =7`  |
