Question

Find the least number which when divided by 40, 50 and 60 leaves remainder 5 in each case.​

Answer 1

Answer:605

Step-by-step explanation:

1st. We should find the Least common multiple of 40, 50, and 60.

2nd. In this case that is 600. We add 5 and since all are larger numbers than 5 they will divide and always get a quotient of 15(40),12(50), 10(60) and a remainder of 5.

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer is 605

Step-by-step explanation:

The required number is

LCM of ( 40,50,60 ) + 5

so LCM of 40,50,60 is

10×4×5×3 = 600 +5 =605.

so required least number is 605.
