Find the greatest number of three digits that is divisible by 3,12, 24, and 36.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 936.

To find the divisible number, we have to find the L.C.M

L.C.M(3, 12, 24, and 36) = 72

The greatest 3-digit number divisible by 72
