उत्तर
Quantity of oil A = 120 liters
Quantity of oil B = 180 liters
uantity of oil C = 240 liters
We want to fill oils A, B and C in tins of the same capacity
∴ The greatest capacity of the tin chat can hold oil. A, B and C = HCF of 120, 180 and 240
By fundamental theorem of arithmetic
120 = 23 × 3 × 5
180 = 22 × 32 × 5
240 = 24 × 3 × 5
HCF = 22 × 3 × 5 = 4 × 3 × 5 = 60 liters
The greatest capacity of tin = 60 liters
