Question

391 boys and 323 girls are distributed in groups in such a manner that each group has equal number of members and that the groups have either only boys or only girls. What is the minimum number of groups?

A.

17

B.

42

C.

23

D.

19

Correct option is B

Given:

Number of boys = 391

Number of girls = 323

Solution:

Find the GCD of 391 and 323:

GCD(391, 323) = 17

Determine the number of groups:

Number of boys' groups = 39117\frac{391}{17}​ = 23

Number of girls' groups = 32317\frac{323}{17}​ = 19

Calculate the total number of groups:

Total number of groups = 23 (boys) + 19 (girls) = 42

Therefore, the minimum number of groups is 42.
