Q.
Find the greatest number of four digits which is exactly divisible by 15, 24 and 36.
The greatest 4 digit number = 9999
Now,
take the LCM of 15, 24, and 36:-
Prime Factorization Method
15 = 3 × 5
24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3
36 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3
On dividing 9999 by 360, remainder = 279
Now,
9999 - 279 = 9720
So,
9720 is the greatest number of four digit which is exactly divisible by 15, 24, and 36.
