I’ll have more problems up this weekend.

16. What is the least common multiple of 70, 60, and 50 ?

F. 60 G. 180 H. 210 J. 2,100K. 210,000

0 50 100 150 200 250

Multiples of 50 eliminate 60, 180, and 210.

What about 2100?

210042

50

210035

60

210030

70

Let’s lay out multiples of 50, to get the feel of the problem:

50, 60, and 70 all evenly go into 2100, 2100 is the least

common multiple.
