Question
वह सबसे छोटी संख्या ज्ञात कीजिए जो 4, 9 और 10 प्रत्येक से विभाजित हो जाए:
- A. 900
- B. 400
- C. 490
- D. 360 (Correct answer)
Correct Answer
Option D — 360
Detailed Solution & Explanation
The correct answer as printed is 360.
Key Points
- The smallest number divisible by 4, 9 and 10 is their LCM = 180 — which is not among the options.
- Both 360 (= 2 × 180) and 900 (= 5 × 180) are divisible by 4, 9 and 10, but 360 is the smaller, so it is the intended answer.
- 400 fails (not divisible by 9) and 490 fails (not divisible by 4 or 9).
Exam Tip
- LCM(4, 9, 10): take the highest power of each prime — 2² × 3² × 5 = 180.
