Three different container contains 403 ltr, 496 ltr and 713 ltr full cream, toned and double toned milk have to be stored in container so that each container contains equal quantity of milk of one type only. Find minimum number of container.

Options:

31

15

17

19

Correct Answer:

31

Explanation:

*HCF = Value of 1 Ratio.* (The best way to find the HCF of numbers)

Therefore, ratio of numbers is

⇒ 403 : 496 : 713

⇒ 13 : 16 : 23              (cut by 31)

So value of 1 ratio = 31 = HCF , it means each container contains 31 ltr milk.

Hence, minimum no. of containers = 31
