First, let's find the multiples of 3 between 40 and 50. You can tell if any number is divisible by 3 by adding the digits and seeing if those are divisible by 3. (30 => 3+0 =3, thus 3 is divisible by 3. 31 => 3+1 =4, thus 31 is not.) We see that 40 and 41 are not divisible. What about 42? 4+2 = 6 which is divisible by 3, thus 42 is divisible by 3. Multiples of 3 must by 3 apart, so we can find the others by adding 3 to 42: 45, 48 Since the next number divisible by three is 51, we stop here. What about divisible by 4? Since 40/4 =10, we know 40 is divisible by 4. We can again add 4 to find the others: 44, 48. Thus we have the multiples of 3 between 40 and 50: 42, 45, 48 and the multiples of 4: 40, 44, 48. Since they have 48 in common, Sue must have been thinking of 48.

40*36 = 1440 is divisible (not divisable) by both. It is not the samllest such number, but that was not required by the question.

No number between 20 and 40 is divisible by all 4 numbers. The smallest number divisible by all 4 of those numbers is: 56

Sure it may be divisible by 8 - or it may not. For example, 40 and 1000 are both divisible by 8.

40 Least Common Multiple for two numbers is a number that is divisible exactly by both of the 2 considered numbers. Since 40 here is a multiple of 5, 40 is the smallest number that is divisible by both 5 and 40.
