Question

The smallest natural number which is divisible by 9, 6, 72 and 76 is:

A.

1338

B.

1368

C.

1359

D.

1327

Correct option is B

Given:
We need to find the smallest natural number divisible by 9, 6, 72, and 76.
Concept Used:
The smallest natural number divisible by a set of numbers is the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of those numbers.
Solution:
Find the prime factorization of each number:

9 = 323^2 ​​

6 = 2×32 \times 3​​

72 = 23×322^3 \times 3^2

76 = 22×192^2 \times 19​ 

LCM=23×32×19\text{LCM} = 2^3 \times 3^2 \times 19​​
LCM=8×9×19\text{LCM} = 8 \times 9 \times 19​​
LCM=72×19=1,368\text{LCM} = 72 \times 19 = 1,368
Thus, option (b) is right.
