The least number that is divisible

Question:

The least number that is divisible by all the numbers from 1 to 10 (both inclusive)

(a) 10                       

(b) 100                     

(c) 504                     

(d) 2520

Solution:

(d) Factors of 1 to 10 numbers

$1=1$

$2=1 \times 2$

$3=1 \times 3$

$4=1 \times 2 \times 2$

$5=1 \times 5$

$6=1 \times 2 \times 3$

$7=1 \times 7$

$8=1 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2$

$9=1 \times 3 \times 3$

$10=1 \times 2 \times 5$

$\therefore \quad L C M$ of number 1 to $10=L C M(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10)$

$=1 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 3 \times 5 \times 7=2520$
