84 ÷ 2 = 42
Check it to make sure.
2 × 42 = 84
42 and 2 can be multiplied to get 84.
So you multiply 2 1/3times 1 1/2 and you get 3 and 1/6
Hopefully this makes sense!
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
18=2×3×3
54=2×3×3×3
gcd=2×3×3=18
Find the smallest number that is divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and add 1.
We need the least common multiple of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
2 = 2
3 = 3
4 = 2^2
5 = 5
6 = 2 * 3
LCM = product of common and not common prime factors with larger exponent.
LCM = 2^2 * 3 * 5 = 4 * 3 * 5 = 60
To always have a remainder of 1, you need of add 1 to 60.
The number is 61.
Check:
61/2 = 30 remainder 1
61/3 = 20 remainder 1
61/4 = 15 remainder 1
61/5 = 12 remainder 1
61/6 = 10 remainder 1
