Answers
Answer:
1080 is the smallest four digit number which is exactly divisible 6,9 and 15
Step-by-step explanation:
First we find the LCM of 6, 9 and 15
LCM of 6, 9 and 15 = 90
90 is the lowest number exactly divisible by 6, 9 and 15
And the multiples of 90 will also be exactly divisible by 6, 9 and 15
So, the lowest four digit number which is exactly divisible 6,9 and 15 must be a multiple of 90
How do we find this four digit number? Simple, we divide 1000 by 90 (Since 1000 is the lowest four digit number)
Dividing 1000 by 90 we get quotient as 11 and remainder as 10
So the 12th multiple of 90 must be smallest four digit number exactly divisible by 6,9 and 15.
12th multiple of 90 is
90×12 = 1080
Thus, 1080 is the smallest four digit number which is exactly divisible by 6,9 and 15
