Question

can anyone solve this

Answer 1

24 = 2x2x2x3

15 = 3x5

36 = 2x2x3x3

LCM = 2x2x2x3x3x5 = 360

greatest 6 digit number = 999999

if we divide 999999 by 360 we will get remainder as 279

999999 - 279 = 999720

and 999720 is the greatest 6 digit number divisible by all three of them

Answer 2

We will find out the LCM of 24,15 and 36 is 360.

Now, greatest 6-digit number is 999999.

Now, We will divide this number by LCM of 24,15 and 36, we will get,

999999/360 will get remainder 279.

Now 999999 – 279 = 999720.

Now we will check it out for the numbers we will get,

999720/24 = 41655

999720/15 = 66648

999720/36 = 27770

∴ 999720 is the greatest number 6-digit number divisible by 24,15 and 36.
