Solution

Note that 7×11×13=1001
Take any three digit number say, abc.
Then abc×1001=abcabc
Therefore, the six digit number abcabc is divisible by 7,11 and 13
According to the Question
Let a 3 digit number be abc
Now repeating it we get abcabc

On Dividing abcabc by abc we get 1001

abc×1001=abcabc
Therefore 1001 is factor of abcabc and 1001=13×7×11
Therefore abcabc is divisible by 7,11 and 13
