For this, Find LCM of 12, 15 and 21
i.e. 420.
Now, since we want a 7 digit number, so, we must Multiply 420 with some number such that it becomes 7 digit..
To find by which number to Multiply, Divide 420 by largest 7 digit number, i.e. 9999999.
So, 9999999÷420 = 23809.5214

So let's try multiplying 23809 with 420,
23809×420 = 9,999,780 Answer!
