प्रश्न

Find the least number of square tiles required to pave the ceiling of a room 15m 17cm long and 9m 2cm broad.

उत्तर

It is given that:
Length of a tile = 15m 17m = 1517cm      [∵ 1m = 100cm]
Breadth of a tile = 9m 2m = 902cm
∴ Side of each square tile = HCF (1517, 902)
Prime factorization:
1517 = 37 × 41
902 = 22 × 41
∴ HCF = product of smallest power of each common prime factor in the numbers = 41
∴ Required number of tiles = `"𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎 𝑜𝑓 𝑐𝑒𝑖𝑙𝑖𝑛𝑔" / "𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎 𝑜𝑓 𝑜𝑛𝑒 𝑡𝑖𝑙𝑒" `=` (1517 × 902) / (41 × 41 )= 37 × 22 = 814`
