To find:
The smallest number that can be divided by two or more numbers without leaving any remainder
Step-by-step explanation:
- Let us solve the problem using division algorithm.
- The formula is a = bq + r, where a is the dividend, b is the divisor, q is the quotient and r is the remainder.
The condition given is remainder = 0 → r = 0.
Then we have, a = bq.
Here, we must understand that we have to find a number that can have two or more numbers (or all the numbers) as its factors.
We have two possibilities:
- Zero (0) - any number can divide 0 and have no remainder
- Infinity (∞) - if we choose an infinite value to have all the lesser values being its factors (without losing generosity)
Here, certainly zero (0) is the smallest number.
Final answer:
The smallest number is zero (0) that can be divided by two or more numbers without leaving any remainder.
