Question

The least number, which when divided by 18, 30, 40 and 45 leaves in each case a remainder of 7, is:

A.

367

B.

361

C.

353

D.

360

Correct option is A

Given:

We need to find the least number N which, when divided by 18, 30, 40, and 45, leaves a remainder of 7 in each case. 

Solution:

LCM of 18, 30, 40, and 45.

18 = 2×32 2 \times 3^2​​

30 = 2×3×5 2 \times 3 \times 5​​

40 = 23×5 2^3 \times 5​​

45 =32×5= 3^2 \times 5​​

LCM = 23×32×5=8×9×5=360 2^3 \times 3^2 \times 5 = 8 \times 9 \times 5 = 360

The least number N that leaves a remainder of 7 when divided by 18, 30, 40, and 45 is:

N = 360 + 7 = 367
