Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let there be x maibles in the basket.

From given information, we can infer that x when divided by 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 leaves a remainder -1 & is a multiple of 7.

Firstly, let's find the LCM of 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 which comes out to be 60.

Now, x = 60n - 1 where n is a whole number.

We have:

(60n-1)mod7=0.

(4n-1)mod7=0 as 60mod7=4.

Here, least possible value of n is 2.

x =-60(2)-1=120-1=119.

There are 119 maibles in the basket.
