Step-by-step explanation:
Given FIND THE LEAST NUMBER WHICH ON BEING DIVIDED BY 3,4,5,7 AND 8 LEAVES IN EACH CASE A REMAINDER OF 2, BUT WHEN DIVIDED BY 11 LEAVES NO REMAINDER
- Now we need to find the lcm of 3,4,5,7,8
- We get the factors of these numbers. So the factors are
- 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 840
- Therefore lcm is 840
- According to the question
- The number leaves a remainder 2 and no remainder when the numbers 3,4,5,7,8 divisible by 11
- So we can write this as 840 m + 2 where 840 m + 2 is a multiple of 11
- Now we have
- 840(1) + 2 = 842 is not divisible by 11
- 840(2) + 2 = 1682 is not divisible by 11
- 840(3) + 2 = 2522 is not divisible by 11
- 840(4) + 2 = 3362 is not divisible by 11
- 840(5) + 2 = 4202 is divisible by 11
- Therefore the least number is 4202 when divided by 3,4,5,7,8 leaves a remainder 2 .
