Answer 2

As 12, 14, 18 divides the number, it is required that they all are factors.

Now, as the number has them as factors it should be multiple of those numbers.

We need to find LCM.

• 12=2²×3
• 14=2×7
• 18=2×3²

So the number will be 2²×3²×7 which is 252, but we must not forget it is added to 5.

So the correct answer will be 252 minus 5, or 247.
