We observe that 12 - 8 = 4, 18 - 14 = 4, 36 - 32 = 4 and 45 - 41 = 4

Hence, the required number should be LCM (12, 18, 36, 45) – 4

The LCM of 12, 18, 36 and 45 = 180.

Hence, required number = 180 – 4 = 176

Find the smallest number which, when divided by 12, 15, 18, 24 and 36 leaves no remainder

The least number which is exactly divisible by each given number is their L.C.M. Required number L.C.M. of 12, 15, 18, 24 and 36.

2 12, 15, 18, 24, 36
2 6, 15, 9, 12, 18
3 3, 15, 9, 6, 9
3 1, 5, 3, 2, 3
  1, 5, 1, 2, 1

∴ L.C.M. = Least required number
= 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 2 = 360

Hence, the least required number = 360
