So the third number is a multiple of 90. \n" ); document.write( "Finish the problem informally, simply by finding which multiples of 90 make the LCM 900 -- that is, find the multiples of 90 that are factors of 900. \n" ); document.write( "ANSWERS: 90, 180, and 450 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
