Problems on H.C.F and L.C.M
Let the least number of six digits,which when divided by 4,6,10 and 15 leaves in each case the same remainder of 2, be N. The sum of the digits in N is :
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.
Make the number of decimal places in all the given numbers the same i.e., 0.12, 0.15, 0.2 and 0.54LCM of 12, 15, 20 and 542|12 15 20 542|6 15 10 273|3 15 5 275|1 5 5 9 1 1 1 9LCM=22×3×5×9=540 LCM=540/10 =5.4
