Solution:-
First we have to find out the LCM of 8, 9 and 10

So, LCM of 8, 9, and 10 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5
= 360
Now, grouping the factors, (2× 2) × 2 × (3 × 3) × 5
i.e. 2 and 5 is not able to make their pair.
So, to make it perfect square, 360 must be multiplied with 2 × 5 = 10
Then,
= 360 × 10 = 3600
∴ 3600 is least square number which is exactly divisible by 8, 9, and 10.
