What is the least number that when divided by 12, 15, and 20 leaves remainder 7 in each case?
A 67
B 127
C 187
D 247

A 3
B 3 or 10
C 7
D Cannot be determined
Correct Answer:  B. 3 or 10
Explanation:

Let the number be 7k + 3. When divided by 14: if k is even (k=2m), number = 14m + 3 (remainder 3); if k is odd (k=2m+1), number = 14m + 10 (remainder 10). So remainder is either 3 or 10.
