Answer:

i) 9

ii) 19 pens, 7 pencils, 3 erasers

Step-by-step explanation:

i) 171 = 3² x 19

   63 = 3² x 7

    27 = 3³

Highest Common Factor/HCF (171, 63, 27) = 3² = 9

Largest no. of bags = 9

ii) In each bag,

   No. of pens = 171 / 9 = 19

   No. of pencils = 63 / 9 = 7

   No. of erasers = 27 / 9 = 3
