Answer: 90,000

To find the LCM (Least Common Multiple) of a number, list the multiples of each number.

Multiples of 900

Since they're a lot, we will extend it to the short version.

900, 2700, 9900, 37800, 85500, 90000

Multiples of 30000

30000, 60000, 90000, 120000, 150000

Looking at both multiples, the least common multiple is 90000, as it is listed in both 900 and 30000.

Hence, 90,000 is the answer.
