The smallest 4 digit number divisible by 24, 15 and 36 is
Plz ans
Answers
Answer:
We have to first find the LCM of 18, 24 and 36:
18 = 2 3 3
24 = 2 2 2 3
36 = 2 2 3 3
LCM = 2 2 2 3 3 = 72
So, LCM of 18, 24 and 36 is 72. But we want the least 4 digit number, which is exactly divisible by 18, 24 and 36.
Smallest 4 digit number = 1000.
Now,
1000 = (13 72) + 64
Next higher quotient is 14.
Now,
1000 = (13 72) + 64
Next higher quotient is 14.
So, the required number = 14 72 = 1008
Hence, the required number is 1008, which is exactly divisible by 18, 24 and 36.
SOLUTION
TO DETERMINE
The smallest 4 digit number divisible by 24 , 15 and 36
CONCEPT TO BE IMPLEMENTED
HCF :
For the given two or more numbers HCF is the greatest number that divides each of the numbers
LCM :
For the given two or more numbers LCM is the least number which is exactly divisible by each of the given numbers
EVALUATION
Here the given numbers are 24 , 15 and 36
We now prime factorise the given numbers
24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3
15 = 3 × 5
36 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3
LCM
= 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5
= 360
Now
360 × 1 = 360 : which is 3 digit number
360 × 2 = 720 : which is 3 digit number
360 × 3 = 1080 : which is 4 digit number
So the required number = 1080
FINAL ANSWER
The smallest 4 digit number divisible by 24, 15 and 36 = 1080
