How do you find the lowest number?
Question: The least number which when divided by 5, 6 , 7 and 8 leaves a remainder 3, but when divided by 9 leaves no remainder, is: solution: L.C.M. of 5, 6, 7, 8 = 840. Required number is of the form 840k + 3. Least value of k for which (840k + 3) is divisible by 9 is k = 2.
What is the least number which when divided by 5 6 7?
Explanation: L.C.M. of 5, 6, 7, 8 = 840. Least value of k for which (840k + 3) is divisible by 9 is k = 2. Required number = (840 x 2 + 3) = 1683.
