Answer:

149

Step-by-step explanation:

L.C.M of 9, 12, 16 = 144

So, 144 is the smallest that is divided by 9, 12 and 16 each.

But, we need to find that number which remains 5.

Then you have to add 5 with the L.C.M.

So, the answer is (144 + 5) = 149


vickeyRoy: how do you know that 144 is the divided by the all number??
soumendu: 144 is the L.C.M of 9, 12, 16
soumendu: L.C.M means Least Common Factor
