A.

500

B.

550

C.

502

D.

528

Correct option is D

Given:

Smallest natural number divisible by 33, 6, 8, and 16:

Concept Used:

Least Common Multiple (LCM)

The smallest natural number divisible by a set of numbers is their Least Common Multiple (LCM).

Solution:

Prime Factorization: Find the prime factorization of each number:

33 = 3 ×\times​ 11

6 = 2×\times3​

8 =23 2^3​​

16 = 242^4​​

​Multiply the highest powers of the prime factors together:

LCM = 24×31×1112^4 × 3^1×11^1 ​= 16 ×\times3×\times11 = 528​​​​

Therefore, the smallest natural number divisible by 33, 6, 8, and 16 is 528.

Option (d) is right.
