    hi shiva
    the answer would be 4.
    reason
    from 1 to 10 there are 3, 6 & 9 which are divisible by 3.
    arrange them as
    3=3^1
    6=2*(3^1)
    9=3^2
    add the power terms and that will be the highest power ie (1+1+2)=4.

    The answer I think is 5.
    5 is the highest number between 2,3,4 and 5. 5 can divide 10 completely.But it will have decimals.
    If we don't want decimals then the answer is 2.

    But my final answer is 5.
