Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Tried out 1, but couldn't get whole numbers on the right side then, so went up to 2, worked

all four numbrrs: 2, 7, 4, 6

The 7 for oxygen got adjusted in the last step of the thinking, because it's the simplest to adjust.

since there are different prime numbers (or rather numbers that don't share prime factors) in the set, the numbers can't be revived by the same number and still give whole numbers as results (they can't be smaller)
