Wao....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lol

OpenStudy (goformit100):

se the question turn to find largest 4 digit number then what will I have to do then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well I would keep adding 120 until I reached a 4 digit number! ;))

OpenStudy (goformit100):

How ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What do you mean?? Just add 120+120=240 and so fourth.... since 120 is the LCM if you keep adding it you will still have a multiple! You could also multiply it!

OpenStudy (zarkon):

if you want the LARGEST 4 digit number that 8,10,12 divide then look at 9999 (the largest 4 digit number ) and divide it by 120 round your answer down and them multiply by 120

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh you need the largest I just thought you needed a 4 digit number! But yeah I agree with Zarkon..... :))

OpenStudy (goformit100):

Thankyou both of you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:)) My pleasure.... :))
