The number would be equal to the H.C.F of (1478+8), (2703+15) and (4052+20) = 2

Answer: 42
Step-by-step explanation: first subtract the numbers:
1478-8=1470
2703-15=2688
4052-20=4032
now find the HCF of 1470,2688 and 4032
4032=2688*1+1344
2688=1344*2+1
1470=1344*1+126
1344=126*10+84
126=84*1+42
84=42*2+0
next,
1470=42*35+0
Hence,the greatest number which divides 1478, 2703, and 4052 leaving remainder 8, 15, and 20 respectively is 42
hope it helps you.
