In a seminar, the number of participants in Hindi, English and mathematics are 60, 84 and 108 respectively. Find the minimum number of rooms required, if in each room, the same number of participants are to be seated and all of them being in the same subject.

Answer:

Minimum number of rooms required = ???????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????? ???????????????????????????????????????????????? / ???????????? (60,84,108)

Prime factorization of 60, 84 and 108:

60 = 22 × 3 × 5

84 = 22 × 3 × 7

108 = 22 × 33

HCF = 22 × 3

HCF = 12

Total number of participants = 60 + 84 + 108 = 252

So, the minimum number of rooms required = 252/12 => 21

Hence, the minimum number of rooms required is 21.
