Question

Find the least number which when divided by 12 ,16 , 18 will leave in each case the same reminder 5:

Answer 1

Answer:

149

Step-by-step explanation:

12 = 2² x 3 ; 16 = 2⁴ ; 18 = 3² x 2

LCM = 2⁴ x 3² = 16 x 9 = 144

Thus, 144 is the lowest number which is divisible by 12, 16, and 18. But we need a number which leaves a remainder 5.

So that should be 144 + 5 = 149
