Question: The least number which when divided by 9, 16, 20 or 24 leaves 3 as remainder in each case is:

Solution:
Given that,
The number leaves a remainder of 3 when divided by 9, 16, 20, or 24.
LCM of 9, 16, 20, and 24 = 720

The least number that leaves a remainder of 3 is = 720 + 3
= 723

So, the least number which leaves a remainder of 3 when divided by 9, 16, 20, or 24 is 723.
