Paper squares

We need to cut a paper rectangle measuring 69 cm by 46 cm into the largest possible identical squares. Calculate the side length of the squares and their number.

Final Answer:

x =  23 cm
n =  6

Step-by-step explanation:

a=69 cm b=46 cm 69=323 46=223 GCD(69,46)=23  x=GCD(a,b)=GCD(69,46)=23 cm
c=a/x=69/23=3 d=b/x=46/23=2  n=c d=3 2=6
