Q.48 A florist made as many identical bunches of flowers as she possibly could, using a total of 100 carnations, 150 tulips and 200 lilies.
How many flowers did she use in each bunch?
1) 5
2) 9
3) 10
4) 20

HCF of 100,150 and 200 is 50.
So she can make 50 bunches.
Number of carnations in each bunch = 100/50=2
Number of tulips in each bunch =150/50=3
Number of lilies in each bunch =100/50=4
So number of flowers in each bunch = 2+3+4=9 flowers.

 HCF of 100, 150 and 200 is 50.

Therefore, number of carnations used in each bunch = =2

Number of tulips used in each bunch = =3

Number of lilies used in each bunch = =4

Thus, total number of flowers used in each bunch = 2 + 3 + 4

                              = 9

Hence, correct option is option (b).
