3 m 60 cm = 360 cm
4 m = 400 cm
This is a HCF related problem.
So, we need to find the HCF of 120, 360 and 400

| 2 | 60 |
| 2 | 30 |
| 3 | 15 |
| 5 |
| 2 | 360 |

| 2 | 400 |
| 2 | 200 |
| 2 | 100 |
| 2 | 50 |
| 5 | 25 |

120 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 5
360 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5
400 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 5 × 5
HCF = 2 × 2 × 2 × 5 = 40
The length of the longest rope = 40 cm
