5. Harish orders the chocolates and starts planning about how
many friends he can share both types of chocolates equally.
Scenario 0: One person (himself)
6. Harish orders the chocolates and starts planning about how
many friends he can share both types of chocolates equally.

8. Harish orders the chocolates and starts planning about how
many friends he can share both types of chocolates equally.
Scenario 3: Among four friends (including him)
9. Possible number of friends among which
chocolate can be shared equally.
• Type I (08): 1, 2, 4, 8
• Type II (12): 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
• 4 is the highest number of friends among which Harish could
divide each type of chocolates equally (including himself).
• HCF (8, 12) = 4
• HCF: Highest Common Factor
10. FAQs:
• Will Scenario 4, 5, 6 , 7, … work for Harish ?
• Can Harish share both types of chocolates equally among more
than 4 friends (including him) ?

among which 8 chocolates of Type I and 12 chocolates of Type II
could be shared equally ?
• Is he increasing or decreasing number of chocolates for him ?
• What is the maximum number of persons among which 18
chocolates of Type I and 24 chocolates of Type II could be shared
equally ?
11. Lovish orders the chocolates and starts planning about no. of

amount in total for each type of sets, after ordering their multiple sets.
• LCM (8, 12) = 24
• LCM: Least Common Multiple
