99,965

99,970

99,980

First find the numbers with the factors of:

2,3,4,5,6,7

find the minum

if something has a factor of 6 then it also has a factor of 3 and 2 so just multiply by the lcm of all of them which is found by

2=2

3=3

4=2 times 2

5=5

6=2 times 3

7=7

LCM=2 times 2 times 3 times 5 times 7=420

now divide 100000 by 420 and round down

100000/420=238.095=238.1 round doen 238
