must be a positive integer, which means must be a positive integer, so z must have factor 31. must be a positive integer, which means must be a positive integer, so z must have factor 20. So the smallest integer that meets those two conditions is 31×20 or 620 Now let's see if 620 meets the third condition or must be a positive integer, and since = 4, 620 meets all 3 requirements so we know that 620 is the answer.
