Answer: 935 is the LCM of 5, 11, and 17.
Explanation:
Firstly, I am going to use the easier method of finding numbers that meet up with each other.
So, by adding the first number to itself and then to the new number, we can use a list-type method. Let's begin.
5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45..... 920, 925, 930, 935.
11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88, 99, 110, 121, 132, 143..... 913, 924, 935.
17, 34, 51, 68, 85, 102, 119..... 884, 901, 918, 935.
The list goes on all the way until we reach 935, which in this case, is our Least Common Multiple. This takes quite a while, so you should use an online and/or auto-calculator instead of doing the challenge on your own.
To recap, using the listing method to find LCMs, the LCM of 5, 11, and 17 is 935.
