Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 216

Given:

8, 24, 36, 54

Concept Used:

Least common multiple(LCM): The least number which is exactly divisible by each of the given numbers is called the least common multiple of those numbers.

Calculation:

8 = 2 × 2 × 2 = 23

24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 = 23 × 31

36 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 = 22 × 32

54 = 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 = 21 × 33

Least common multiple of 8, 24, 36, 54 = 23 × 33 = 8 × 27

⇒ 216

∴ LCM of 8, 24, 36, 54 is 216
