Question

Calculate the smallest five-digit number divisible by 9, 11 and 21.

A.

10,390

B.

10,385

C.

10,395

D.

10,830

Correct option is C

Given:

Numbers: 9, 11, and 21

Solution:

LCM of 9, 11, and 21:

Prime factorization:

9 = 3²

11 = 11

21 = 3 × 7

LCM = Highest powers of all prime factors = 3² × 7 × 11
LCM = 9 × 7 × 11 = 693

To find the smallest five-digit number divisible by 693:
Smallest five-digit number = 10000
Divide 10000 by 693:
10000 ÷ 693 = 14.43 (approximately)

Take the next whole number greater than 14.43, which is 15.
Smallest five-digit number divisible by 693 = 693 × 15 = 10395
