    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
