If A, B and C are three numbers such that L.C.M. of A and B is B and the L.C.M. of B and C is C then the L.C.M. of A, B and C is

  1. A

  2. B

  3. C

  4. $\displaystyle \frac{A+B+C}{3}$

Find a number which has a multiple of all the numbers from $1$ to $10?$

  1. $5040$
  2. $1260$
  3. $720$
  4. $1440$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Number which has a multiple of all the numbers from 1 to 10 will be multiple of their LCM.

$LCM (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10)= 2520$
The only multiple of 2520 from the options is 5040 which is option A so correct answer will be option A

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

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
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.
