24, 15 and 36
24 = 2 x 2 x2 x3
15 = 3 x 5
36 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
L.C.M of 24, 15 and 36 = 360
Now, 999999 /  360
quotient =  2777
Remainder =  279
Therefore, the remainder is 279. Hence the required number is = 999999 – 279 = 999720
Hence, 999720 is the greatest number of 6 digits exactly divisible by 24, 15 and 36.
