If (L) is the LCM of (98), (147), and (245), what is the value of (L)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (1470)
Step 1: (98=2\times7^2), (147=3\times7^2), and (245=5\times7^2). Step 2: The highest powers are (2), (3), (5), and (7^2), so LCM (=2\times3\times5\times49=1470). Step 3: Take the common highest power (7^2) only once.
