    Question

    Find the greatest 5 -digit number that can be divisible by 18,15 and 21 .

    A.

    99455

    B.

    99545

    C.

    99450

    D.

    99540

    Correct option is D

    Given:

    Greatest 5 -digit number that can be divisible by 18,15 and 21 .

    Solution:

    LCM of 18, 15, and 21:

    21×32×51×712^1×3^2×5^1×7^1

    ​​2 × 9 × 5 × 7 = 630

    greatest 5-digit number divisible by 630

    The greatest 5-digit number is 99999.

    Divide 99999 by 630 and find the quotient:

    Quotient = [99999630][\frac{99999}{630}] = 158

    Multiply 158 by 630 to find the largest 5-digit multiple

    158 × 630 = 99540

    So, the greatest 5-digit number that is divisible by 18, 15, and 21 is 99540.

    Thus, correct option is (d)
