Solution :

The numbers which are exactly divisble by 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 and 7 are the multiples of the LCM of the given numbers.

∴ LCM of given numbers :

⇒ 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 7

⇒ 420

Now, dividing 10000 by 420. 

Remainder = 340

∴ Number just less than 10000 and exactly divisble by given numbers :

⇒ 10000 - 340 = 9660

Number just greater than 10000 and exactly divisble by the given numbers:

⇒ 10000 + ( 420 - 340 )

⇒ 10080

Hence the correct answer is " 9660 and 10080".
