  • Question
  • A drink vendor has 368 liters of Maaza, 80 liters of Pepsi and 144 liters of Sprite. He wants to pack them in cans, so that each can contains the same number of liters of a drink, and doesn't want to mix any two drinks in a can. What is the least number of cans required ?


  • Options
  • A. 47
  • B. 46
  • C. 37
  • D. 35

  • Correct Answer
  • 37 

    Explanation

    The number of liters in each can = HCF of 80, 144 and 368 = 16 liters.
    Number of cans of Maaza = 368/16 = 23
    Number of cans of Pepsi = 80/16 = 5
    Number of cans of Sprite = 144/16 = 9
    The total number of cans required = 23 + 5 + 9 = 37 cans.
