Correct Answer: 16
Solution : In this case, the differences between the divisors and the respective remainders are the same (20) for all four cases. Therefore, the least number is given by LCM(36, 72, 80, 88) – 20. The LCM of 36, 72, 80, and 88 is 7920. Therefore, the least number = 7920 – 20 = 7900 The sum of the digits of this number = 7 + 9 + 0 + 0 = 16 Hence, the correct answer is 16.
