when in each box 5 or 6 dozens apples are packed , 3 dozens are left out. after packing 8 or 9 dozens still 3 apples are left. what is least number of dozens of apples to be packed?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

least means you need to find LCM

OpenStudy (anonymous):

60 or72 left-36 96 or 108 left-36

OpenStudy (anonymous):

60-96=36 72-108=36

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 36

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so better to go like this no. of apples required=LCM of (5,6,8,9) + 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6*2*5 or 6*6*2 6*4*4 or6*6*3
