Given:
If i collect one more stamp, I would have 3 times the number of stamps Sumit has, 4 times as many as Rahul has and 5 times as many as Rohit has.
To find:
What could be the least number of stamps I have now?
Solution:
From given, we have,
3 times the number of stamps Sumit has, 4 times as many as Rahul has and 5 times as many as Rohit has
we need to find the LCM pf the numbers 3, 4, and 5.
3 × 4 × 5 = 60
If I collect one more stamp, I would have 3 times the number of stamps Sumit has, 4 times as many as Rahul has and 5 times as many as Rohit has.
60 - 1 = 59
Therefore, You have 59 stamps right now.
