Question

Determine the two numbers nearest to 1000 which are exactly divisible by 3,2,5,6,8,4, and 6.
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

LCM of (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) = 3 × 4 × 5 × 7 × 2 = 840

⇒ divided 10000 by LCM

⇒ 10000840,

we get remainder = 760

Now two possibilities are

= 10000 - 760 = 9240

or 10000 + (840 - 760) = 10080

So, nearest number is = 10080

solve by using above example
