Problem
How many integers between 1000 and 2000 have all three of the numbers 15, 20, and 25 as factors?
Solution 1
Find the least common multiple of by turning the numbers into their prime factorization.
Gather all necessary multiples
when multiplied gets
. The multiples of
. The number of multiples between 1000 and 2000 is
.
Solution 2
Using the previous solution, turn and
into their prime factorizations.
Notice that
can be prime factorized into:
Using this, we can remove all the common factors of
and
that are shared with
:
We must also cancel the same factors in
:
The remaining numbers left of , and
(
and
) yield:
Thus, counting these numbers we get our answer of:
.
