Answer» Answer: Step-by-step EXPLANATION: SINCE the REMAINDER and divisor differ by 1 in each CASE So, we find the LCM of (10-1), (9-1), (8-1), .......(2-1) It just means to find the LCM of 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 LCM = 2520 thus, the required number = 2520-1 = 2519 Hence, 2519 is the number when divided byb10 leaves remainder 9, when divided by 9 leaves remainder 8, when divided by 8 leaves remainder 7 and so on. |
