The positive integer x is a multiple of 9 and also a
multiple of 12. The smallest possible value of x is
(A) 3
(B) 12
(C) 21
(D) 36
(E) 72


Sagot :

x is multiple of 9 as well as 12.

Thus, smallest value will be 36 ( 9 *4 = 36, 12 * 3 = 36)

3 and 12 are not the multiples of 9.

72 is a larger multiple than 36; thus, the correct answer is 36.
