Answer will be 946.Approach- 3*5*7*9= 945hence for 946 mangoes there is always 1 mango is left for rows of 3,5,7 & 9.And 946/11=86. Hence no mango will left for row of 11.

take lcm of 4,6,8,10 ==>120(becoz remainder is 1 in each case)

120+1=121 which is dividible by 11

so mangoes are 121

lcm of 3,5,7,9 is 945...if we divide 946 it will have remainder 1 but if we divide by 11 no remainder....
