      Question

      Find the least 4-digit number which, when divided by 9,

      12, and 15, leaves a remainder of 4 in each case.
      A 1,084 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 1,164 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 1,244 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 1,324 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Prime factorization of 9 = 3Β²
      Prime factorization of 12 = 2Β² Γ— 3
      Prime factorization of 15 = 3 Γ— 5 LCM of (9, 12, and 15) = 2Β² Γ— 3Β² Γ— 5 = 180 Least 4-digit number divisible by 180 = 1,080 So, required number = 1080 + 4 = 1,084 Hence, option A.
