Answer:
The number that is perfectly divisible by each of the numbers 8, 15, and 20 is their LCM. Here, prime factors 2, 3, and 5 do not have their respective pairs. Therefore, 120 is not a perfect square
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us find LCM of 8,15 and 20
8=2×2×2
15=3×5
20=2×2×5
So, LCM =2×2×2×3×5=120.
For nos which are not in pairs in LCM factors, we need to multiply 120 by 2, 3 and 5 to make it a perfect square.
Required Number =120×2×3×5=3600
