What is the minimum number of bags he will require if each bag has the whole number of rupees?
1) 5

Refer to the data below and answer the questions that follow.

Three thieves robbed a diamond shop independently but distributed their diamonds according to the rule that the person or persons with maximum diamonds should give diamonds equal to the H.C.F. of their individual number of diamonds to the person or persons with the lowest number of diamonds. this process is repeated till all have equal diamonds.

Question 3: 

If they have 39,52,26 diamonds, how many times should the process be repeated?

4) Not possible

Question 4:

1)3 
4) Not possible 
If Anil has to give 1 rupee he needs a bag with Re.1 each or Re.2 bag .
To have minimum bags he has a bag with Rs.2.
Now with the two bags, he can give Rs.3.So next he will require a bag with Rs.4.
With these three he can give Rs.5, Rs.6 and Rs.7 and next bag will be one containing Rs.8 and so on. Thus he would have bags with Re.1,2,4,8,16,32. 
Sum of which is 63 and remaining 37 can be put in the last bag. So total number of bags is 7. Hence,(3).

Thus, 2883rd digit will be 7. Hence,(3).

Solution 3

H.C.F. of the individual number of diamonds is 13.
Hence, (1).

Solution 4

H.C.F. of the individual number of diamonds is 17. 
So they have 17( 3+5+6)=17*14=238 diamonds. 
238 is not a multiple of 3.
