Correct Answer - Option 4 : 900

Given:

Number = Perfect square

Number is divisible by 10, 12, 15 and 18

Concept used:

LCM = Product of the highest power of the prime factors

Calculations:

Expressing the given terms in the form of prime factors,

10 = 2 × 5

12 = 22 × 3

15 = 3 × 5

18 = 2 × 32

LCM = 22 × 32 × 5

⇒ 180

If we multiply 5 to the LCM we get,

⇒ 5 × 180

⇒ 900

∴ The least perfect square which is divisible by the given numbers is 900
