Question

What is the greatest 3 digit number which is exactly divisible by 24? Please explain.​

Answer 1

What is (41 x 24) = 984

The largest 3-digit number is 999.

999 divided by 24 is 41.625 .

To say that another way: When you have a bucket with room for 1,000 in it, you can fit 24 into it 41 times, with some space left over … but not enough to squeeze in another 24.

So the largest number less than 999 that can fit some 24s into it with no space left over is (41 x 24) = 984 .
