• Question 1 of 5 1. Question The least number of five digits which is exactly divisible by 12, 15 and 18 is (a) 10010 (b) 10015 (c) 10020 (d) 10080 Correct Solution: Least number of 5 digits is 10000. L.C.M. of 12, 15 and 18 is 180. On dividing 10000 by 180, the remainder is 100. Required number = 10000 + (180 – 100) = 10080. Incorrect Solution: Least number of 5 digits is 10000. L.C.M. of 12, 15 and 18 is 180. On dividing 10000 by 180, the remainder is 100. Required number = 10000 + (180 – 100) = 10080.

#### 1. Question

The least number of five digits which is exactly divisible by 12, 15 and 18 is

Solution:

Least number of 5 digits is 10000.

L.C.M. of 12, 15 and 18 is 180.

On dividing 10000 by 180, the remainder is 100.

Required number = 10000 + (180 – 100) = 10080.

Solution:

Least number of 5 digits is 10000.

L.C.M. of 12, 15 and 18 is 180.

On dividing 10000 by 180, the remainder is 100.

Required number = 10000 + (180 – 100) = 10080.

• Question 2 of 5 2. Question The number between 4000 and 5000 which is divisible by 12, 18, 21 and 32 is (a) 4023 (b) 4032 (c) 4203 D) 4302 Correct Solution: L.C.M. of 12, 18, 21 and 32 = 2 × 2 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 8= 2016.So, the required number is a multiple of 2016 and lies between 4000 and 5000. Hence, required number = 4032. Incorrect Solution: L.C.M. of 12, 18, 21 and 32 = 2 × 2 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 8= 2016.So, the required number is a multiple of 2016 and lies between 4000 and 5000. Hence, required number = 4032.

#### 2. Question

The number between 4000 and 5000 which is divisible by 12, 18, 21 and 32 is

Solution:

L.C.M. of 12, 18, 21 and 32

= 2 × 2 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 8= 2016.So, the required number is a multiple of 2016 and lies between 4000 and 5000. Hence, required number = 4032.

Solution:

L.C.M. of 12, 18, 21 and 32

= 2 × 2 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 8= 2016.So, the required number is a multiple of 2016 and lies between 4000 and 5000. Hence, required number = 4032.

• Question 3 of 5 3. Question A milkman has 3 jars containing 57 litres, 129 litres and 177 litres of pure milk respectively. A measuring can, after a different number of exact measurements of milk in each jar, leaves the same amount of milk unmeasured in each jar. What is the volume of the largest such can? (a) 12 litres (b) 16 litres (c) 24 litres (d) None of these Correct Solution: Required volume = [H.C.F. of (129 – 57), (177 – 129) and (177 – 57)] litres = (H.C.F. of 72, 48 and 120) litres = 24 litres. Incorrect Solution: Required volume = [H.C.F. of (129 – 57), (177 – 129) and (177 – 57)] litres = (H.C.F. of 72, 48 and 120) litres = 24 litres.

#### 3. Question

A milkman has 3 jars containing 57 litres, 129 litres and 177 litres of pure milk respectively. A measuring can, after a different number of exact measurements of milk in each jar, leaves the same amount of milk unmeasured in each jar. What is the volume of the largest such can?

• (a) 12 litres

• (b) 16 litres

• (c) 24 litres

• (d) None of these

Solution:

Required volume = [H.C.F. of (129 – 57), (177 – 129) and (177 – 57)] litres

= (H.C.F. of 72, 48 and 120) litres = 24 litres.

Solution:

Required volume = [H.C.F. of (129 – 57), (177 – 129) and (177 – 57)] litres

= (H.C.F. of 72, 48 and 120) litres = 24 litres.

• Question 4 of 5 4. Question Three electronic devices make a beep sound after every 30, 60, and 105 minutes respectively. It is given that all the devices beeped together at 3:00PM. When will they beep together again? (a) 7:00 PM (b) 8:00 PM (c) 9:00 PM (d) 10:00 PM Correct Solution: LCM of 30, 60, 105 = 420 minutes 420/60 =7 hours Therefore They will beep again at 3 + 7 = 10 PM Incorrect Solution: LCM of 30, 60, 105 = 420 minutes 420/60 =7 hours Therefore They will beep again at 3 + 7 = 10 PM

#### 4. Question

Three electronic devices make a beep sound after every 30, 60, and 105 minutes respectively. It is given that all the devices beeped together at 3:00PM. When will they beep together again?

• (a) 7:00 PM

• (b) 8:00 PM

• (c) 9:00 PM

• (d) 10:00 PM

Solution:

LCM of 30, 60, 105 = 420 minutes

420/60 =7 hours

Therefore They will beep again at 3 + 7 = 10 PM

Solution:

LCM of 30, 60, 105 = 420 minutes

420/60 =7 hours

Therefore They will beep again at 3 + 7 = 10 PM

• Question 5 of 5 5. Question Three girls start jogging from the same point around a circular track and each one completes one round in 24 seconds, 36 seconds and 48 seconds respectively. After how much time will they meet at one point a) 2 minutes 20 seconds b) 2 minutes 24 seconds c) 3 minutes 36 seconds d) 4 minutes 12 seconds Correct Solution: L.C.M. of 24, 36, 48 = 144. So, the three girls will meet at one point in 144 seconds i.e., 2 min 24 sec. Incorrect Solution: L.C.M. of 24, 36, 48 = 144. So, the three girls will meet at one point in 144 seconds i.e., 2 min 24 sec.

#### 5. Question

• c) 3 minutes 36 seconds

• d) 4 minutes 12 seconds

Solution:

L.C.M. of 24, 36, 48 = 144.

So, the three girls will meet at one point in 144 seconds i.e., 2 min 24 sec.

Solution:

L.C.M. of 24, 36, 48 = 144.

So, the three girls will meet at one point in 144 seconds i.e., 2 min 24 sec.
