Step-by-step explanation:
we have to find a number that is divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 (meaning that it is a multiple of those numbers) and that number + 1 being divisible by 7.
First we find the Lowest Common Multiple of these numbers,
LCM = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 = 60
Now, we check if 60 + 1 is divisible by 7 or not.
clearly 61 is not divisible by 7.
Now we find a multiple of 60 such that when we add 1 to it, the number becomes divisible by 7.
After some trial and error, we will found that the lowest number that works is 300, which is 5 × 60 . When we take 300 + 1 = 301 , 301 ÷ 7 = 43.
Therefore, The required number is 301.

Answer:
YOUR ANSWER IS 301.
Step-by-step explanation:
The least common multiple of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 is their LCM=60.
The least common multiple of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 is their LCM=60.So, the answer is the least number such that it is a multiple of 7 and a multiple of 60 leaving remainder 1.
The least common multiple of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 is their LCM=60.So, the answer is the least number such that it is a multiple of 7 and a multiple of 60 leaving remainder 1.∴The required answer is 301.
