  1. What least number must be subtracted from 1936 so that the resulting number when divided by 9, 10 and 15 will leave in each case the same remainder 7 ?

LCM of 9, 10 and 15 = 90⇒ The multiple of 90 are also divisible by 9, 10 or 15.∴ 21 × 90 = 1890 will be divisible by them.∴ Now, 1897 will be the number that will give remainder 7.

∴ Required number = 1936 – 1897 = 39
