360 is the smallest number that is evenly divisible by all three of the numbers 15, 24 and 36.
To be divisible evenly by 15, the number must end in 0 or 5.
To be divisible by 24 and 36, the number can’t end in 5.
90 is divisible by 15, but not by 24 or 36.
120 is divisible by 15 and 24, but not by 36. The remainder when dividing by 36 is
12, which is ⅓ of 36.
Therefore, number that is divisible by all three, you need to triple the number 120.
3 • 120 = 360. 360/15
= 24. 360/24
= 15. 360/36
= 10.
