Correct Answer: 4


Solution : LCM of 3, 4, and 6 is 12.
Common difference d = (3 – 1) = 2, (4 – 2) = 2 and (6 – 4) = 2
Since the common difference is the same, i.e., 2.
The largest 2-digit number formed which is a multiple of 12 is 12 × 8 = 96
N = 96 – 2 = 94
So, when 94 is divided by 5, the remainder is 4
Hence, the correct answer is 4.
