What number divided by 6 leaves a remainder of 5, divided by 5 leaves a remainder of 4, divided by 4 leaves a remainder of 3, an

maria [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If a number is divided by $n$ and leaves a remainder $(n-1)$ , then the number $(n+1)$ will be completely divisible by $n$ .

Therefore, when we say a number $x$ , when divided by 6, it leaves a remainder 5, then ( $x+1$ ) will be a multiple of 6.

When we say a number $x$ , when divided by 5, it leaves a remainder 4, then ( $x+1$ ) will be a multiple of 5.

When we say a number $x$ , when divided by 4, it leaves a remainder 3, then ( $x+1$ ) will be a multiple of 4.

When we say a number $x$ , when divided by 3, it leaves a remainder 2, then ( $x+1$ ) will be a multiple of 3.

So, $x+1$ is a common multiple of 3, 4, 5 and 6.

Taking LCM of 3, 4, 5 and 6, we get 60.

So, the number 60 - 1 = <em>59</em> is the least such number.

A woman wants to measure the height of a nearby tower. She places a 5 ft pole in the shadow of the tower so that the shadow of t

belka [17]

This scenario sets up a pair of similar right triangles. the smaller triangle had height 5 and base 6,5. the larger had height x (height of the tower, which we want to measure). and base of 177 the proportion is then x/177 = 5/6.5, or
6.5x = 5*177
6.5x=885
x=136.15
answer is 136 feet
