Question

Ramesh has certain number of marbles. If he divides them equally among 5 kids or 4 kids or 3 kids or 2 kids, he will be left with nothing. What could be the minimum number of marbles that he has?

• A. 30
• B. 40
• C. 50
• D. 60

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The number of marbles should be divisible by 5, 4, 3, and 2.

Finding the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of these numbers:

LCM(5,4,3,2) = 60

Since 60 is the smallest number divisible by all, it must be the minimum marbles Ramesh has.

Conclusion: Thus, the correct answer is 60 (Option D)
