Find the smallest no which when divided by 28 and 32 leaves remanider 8 and 12 respictively |
Answer» HEY !Given that the smallest number when divided by 28 and 32 leaves REMAINDER 8 and 12 respectively. 28 - 8 = 20 and 32 - 12 = 20 are DIVISIBLE by the required numbers. Therefore the required number will be 20 less than the LCM of 28 and 32. Prime factorization of 28 = 2 * 2 * 7 Prime factorization of 32 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 LCM(28,32) = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 7 = 224. Therefore the required smallest number = 224 - 20 = 204. Verification is in the attachmentHope it HELPS |
