LCM of the numbers $12, 24$ and $36$ is 

  1. $36$

  2. $24$

  3. $72$

  4. $108$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Taking out the factors of the given numbers,

$12 = 2 \times 2 \times 3$
$24 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 $
$ 36 = 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 3$
$\therefore $ LCM of $12,24$ and $36$ $= 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 3 = 72$

LCM of the numbers $36$ and $72$ is 

  1. $36$

  2. $72$

  3. $108$

  4. $2$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

$36 = 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 3$
$72 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 3$
$\therefore $ L.C.M of $36$  and $72$  $= 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 3 = 72$

Three common multiples of $18$ and $6$ are 

  1. $18,6,9$

  2. $18,36,6$

  3. $36,54,72$

  4. None


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Multiples of $ 18 = 18, 36, 54...$
Multiples of $ 6 = 6, 12, 18, ... $
The first common multiple will be $ 18 $
And the next common multiples will be multiples of $ 18 $
Hence, first three common multiples of $ 18, 6 $ are $ 18, 36, 54 $

  1. difference of numbers

  2. sum of numbers

  3. quotient of numbers

  4. product of numbers


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

$LCM \times HCF =$ product of numbers

HCF of co-prime numbers $=1$  
So, $LCM=$ product of numbers
Therefore, $D$ is the correct answer.

If the value of $p=4$ then, $p , p +2, p + 4$ is a multiple of .......... .

  1. $3$

  2. $5$

  3. $2$

Find a possible value of $v$, if the least common multiple of $9, 10, 12$ and $v$ is $540$.

  1. 18

  2. 24

  3. 27

  4. 36

  5. 45


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

LCM of 9,10,12

$9=3\times 3$
$10=2\times 5$
$12=2\times 2\times 3$
$LCM(9,10,12)=2\times 2\times 3\times 3\times 5=180$
180 is also multiply of 18,36,45.If v is 18,36 and 45 than LCM of all the number would be 180 but its 540 so the answer is Option C.

The greatest number with four digits which when divided by $3, 5, 7, 9$ leaves the remainders $1, 3, 5, 7$ respectively, is _______.

  1. $9763$

  2. $9673$

  3. $9367$

  4. $9969$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Since on dividing by $3$ the remainder is $1$, the sum of digits of the number must add upto a number, dividing which by $3$ we get remainder $1$

Since on dividing by $5$ remainder is $3$, unit place digit has to be either $3$ or $8$
Since on dividing by $9$ remainder is $7$, sum of digits should give remainder $7$ when divided by $9$ 
Only options (A), (B) satisfy these criteria
Since (A) is bigger, we divide it by $7$ and find remainder which turns out to be $5$. 

When $31513$ ad $34369$ are divided by a certain three digit number, the remainders are equal, then the remainder is ______.

  1. $86$

  2. $97$

  3. $374$

  4. $113$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Let the divisor be $a$ and remainder be $r$

Let $31513 = am+r$
and $34369 = an+r$
Then, $a(n-m) = 2856 = 24\times119 = 12\times238 = 8\times357= 6\times476=4\times714$
All three digit numbers give same remainder $=$ $97$

The numbers which are multiples of $2$ are called ____.
