A training camp has (276) students and (414) practice booklets. The maximum number of identical groups is to be formed so that each group has the same number of both separately. How many groups can be formed?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (138)
Step 1: The maximum number of identical groups is found by HCF. Step 2: (276=2^2\times3\times23) and (414=2\times3^2\times23), so HCF (=2\times3\times23=138). Step 3: Use HCF for maximum equal distribution.
