Question

find and lowest number
which being increased by
3 is exactly divisible by 8.
14 and 16​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

LCM of 8, 14 and 16 is 112

2 | 8 14 16

4 | 4 7 8

2 | 1 7 2

7 | 1 7 1

| 1 1 1

LCM = 2*4*2*7

LCM = 112

We are required to find the number which added to 3 turns out to be LCM of 8, 14 and 16

Thus by subtracting 3 from LCM will be the solution and hence the required number is 109.

Answer 2

Answer:

109

Step-by-step explanation:

109+3= 112

16 × 7= 112

14×8 = 112

8×14 = 112

therefore answer is 109
