There are 24 peaches, 36 apricots and 60 bananas and they have to be arranged in several rows in such a way that every row contains the same number of fruits of only one type. What is the minimum number of rows required for this to happen ?

- 12
- 9
- 10
- 6
Correct Option: C
Minimum number of rows = Maximum number of fruits in each row
∴ HCF of 24, 36 and 60 = 12
| ∴ Minimum number of rows = | + | + | ||||
| 12 | 12 | 12 |
Hence , Minimum number of rows = 2 + 3 + 5 = 10
