Aman wants to tile a rectangular courtyard 6 m 30 cm long and 4 m 80 cm wide using identical square tiles of the largest possible size, with no tile cut. What is the side of each square tile (in cm)?

Question

Accepted Answer

30. Length = 630 cm, width = 480 cm. Largest square tile = HCF(630, 480). 630 = 2 x 3^2 x 5 x 7, 480 = 2^5 x 3 x 5; HCF = 2 x 3 x 5 = 30 cm.
