Problems on H.C.F and L.C.M
A, B and C start running around a circular stadium and complete one round in 27 s, 9 s and 36 s, respectively. In how much time will they meet again at the starting point?
Smallest number of five digits is 10000. Required number must be divisible by L.C.M. of 16,24,36,54 i.e 432, On dividing 10000 by 432,we get 64 as remainder. Required number = 10000 +( 432 – 64 ) = 10368.
