    There are three cans of milk containing 36 litres, 45 litres and 72 litres. Find the biggest measure that can measure all these exactly.

    A.

    9 litres

    B.

    8 litres

    C.

    7 litres

    D.

    15 litres

    Correct option is A

    36 = 2×2×3×3
    45= 3×3×5
    72 = 2×2×2×3×3
