a) 0.011
b) 0.11
c) 0.111
d) 1.111
correct answer is: a) 0.011
Explanation
To find the required greatest number we need to find the HCF of the given number.
Here, given numbers are 0.121,0.33 and 1.1
Let, [remove decimal & rearrange]
0.121 = 121
0.33 = 330
1.1 = 1100
So, HCF of 121,330 and 1100 is = 11
So that, HCF of 0.121,0.33 and 1.1 is = 0.011 [3 digits after decimal point]
\therefore The greatest number that is exactly divisible by 0.121, 0.33 and 1.1, giving integers as quotients, is 0.011.
Ans: 0.011 is the greatest number.
An alternative way to phrase this particular math query is possible:
- What is the largest number by which 0.121, 0.33, and 1.1 can be divided to yield integer quotients?
