What is the smallest number of seeds Sunita could have had?

A41
B31
C51
D61
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. 61
1. The number leaves one over when grouped in fours, fives and sixes. 2. So the number minus one must divide by 4, 5 and 6, and the smallest such number is 60. 3. So Sunita had 60 plus 1, which is 61 seeds. _Source: syllabus Mathematics, 'Math-Magic', Ch 6 'Be My Multiple, I'll be Your Factor'_
