We find LCM of 20, 28, 32 and 35
∴ LCM = 2 × 2 × 5 × 7 × 8 = 1120
∴ Required number = 5834 – LCM of 20, 28, 32 and 35Correct Option: B
We find LCM of 20, 28, 32 and 35
∴ LCM = 2 × 2 × 5 × 7 × 8 = 1120
∴ Required number = 5834 – LCM of 20, 28, 32 and 35
∴ Required number = 5834 – 1120 = 4714

Required number = (LCM of 24, 32, 36 and 54) – 5
Now,LCM of 24, 32, 36 and 54
LCM = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 4 = 864Correct Option: B
Required number = (LCM of 24, 32, 36 and 54) – 5
Now,LCM of 24, 32, 36 and 54
LCM = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 4 = 864
∴ Required number = 864 – 5 = 859
