The least number which when divided by 4,5,6,8 and 10 is the LCM of these numbers. But each time to get 3 as remainder, we have to add the remainder 3 to the obtained LCM.LCM of (4, 5, 6, 8, 10)+ 3=120+3=123
The greatest number that will divide 172,205 and 304 leaving the same remainder in each case is HCF ((205-172), (304-205), (304-172)) = HCF of 33, 99, and 132 33=31x11 99=3 x 3 x 11 132=3 x 2 x 2 x11 Required number =3 x 11=33
