Open in App
Solution

  • To solve these kind of question always remember this formula required number=
    n*(L.C.M. of a,b,c)+3 where n is a natural number,in this case n*(L.C.M. of 4,7, 13 )+3=n*364+3 now take n in such a way that this multiplication (n*364) should be closer to 9996,now you will wonder why 9996 let me explain 9996 because you have to add 3 more to 9996 so it will become 9999,but in our case that number is very less as compared to 9996 because if you will take n as 27 then (27*364) will become 9828,there is no point of getting 9996...anyway required number will be 9828+3=9831
