What is the smallest number exactly divisible by (24), (36), and (54)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (216)
Step 1: The smallest number divisible by all given numbers is their LCM. Step 2: (24=2^3\times3), (36=2^2\times3^2), and (54=2\times3^3), so LCM (=2^3\times3^3=216). Step 3: For the smallest exactly divisible number, find the LCM.
