We first find the LCM of 12, 16, 24, and 36 as follows:
Thus, LCM = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 = 144
144 is the least number which when divided by the given numbers will leave remainder 0 in each case. But we need the least number that leaves remainder 7in each case.
Therefore, the required number is 7 more than 144.
The required least number = 144 + 7 = 151.
Find the least number which when divided by 12,16,24 and 36 leaves a remainder 7 in each case.
