  1. Total number of pens =1001
    Total number of pencils =910

    maximum number of students who get the same number of pens and same number of pencils =HCF(1001 and 910)
    using Prime factorization:
    910=2×5×7×13
    1001=7×11×13

    Now HCF(1001 and 910)=91

    Answer : 91 students get same number of pens and pencil.
