1. Find the greatest 4-digit number which
when divided by 7, 10, 15, 21 and 28 leaves no reminder
Answers
Let the greatest 4-digit number be “N”.
So, N is divisible by 7, 10, 15, 21 and 28.
=>N=K×LCM(7,10,15,21,28)
Note: K is any natural number such that K* LCM gives us a 4-digit number.
=>N=K×420
=>N = 420K
Now the greatest 4-digit number is 9999.
R[9999420]=339
=>(9999−339)=9660 is divisible by 420
=>9660=420×23
=>K=23
Thus, the greatest 4-digit multiple of 420 is 9660 which is our required number.
mark me as brainliest plz plz plz
