To find the maximum number of devotes among which 540 oranges, 450 apples, and 630 bananas can be distributed in such a way that the number of oranges, apples, and bananas remains the same, we need to find the common factors of the given numbers.
1. Find the factors of each number:
- Factors of 540: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 27, 30, 36, 45, 54, 60, 90, 108, 135, 180, 270, 540
- Factors of 450: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 25, 30, 45, 50, 75, 90, 150, 225, 450
- Factors of 630: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 14, 15, 18, 21, 30, 35, 42, 45, 63, 70, 90, 105, 126, 210, 315, 630
2. Find the common factors of the given numbers:
- Common factors of 540, 450, and 630: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90
3. Calculate the maximum number of devotes:
- The maximum number of devotes is equal to the highest common factor of the given numbers.
- In this case, the highest common factor is 90.
- Therefore, the maximum number of devotes among which 540 oranges, 450 apples, and 630 bananas can be distributed is 90.
Thus, the correct answer is option 'B' - 90.
