Find the largest four digit number which is divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
Answer:
9960
- The number which is divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 will also be divisible by LCM of 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
- LCM of 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 = 60
- Largest four digit number = 9999
- Let us divide 9999 by 60 and find the remainder,
Remainder after dividing 9999 by 60 is 39. - Therefore, the largest number which is divisible by these numbers should be 39 less than 9999.
Therefore, the answer is 9999 - 39 = 9960
