Answer:
99,720.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find a number exactly divisible by some given numbers first find their LCM.
LCM of 36, 24, 18, 15 and 9 ...
3² * 2², 3 * 2³, 3² * 2, 3 * 5, and 3²
LCM = 3² * 2³ * 5 = 360
Five digit numbers : 10,000 to 99,999.
100,000 = 360 * 277 + 280.
So 100,000 - 280 = 99,720 is exactly divisible by 360.
That's the answer.
