Smallest number of five digits is 10000. Required number must be divisible by L.C.M. of 16,24,36,54 i.e 432, On dividing 10000 by 432,we get 64 as remainder. Required number = 10000 +( 432 – 64 ) = 10368.
L.C.M. of 5, 6, 7, 8 = 840.Required number is of the form 840k + 3Least value of k for which (840k + 3) is divisible by 9 is k = 2.Required number = (840 x 2 + 3) = 1683.
