The numbers 3,5,qnd 7 are prime numbers.
If a number is a multiple of 3, 5, and 7,
each of those prime numbers appears at least once in the prime factorization of the number.
The number is going to be 3%2A5%2A7%2Asomething .
In other words, it must be a multiple of 3%2A5%2A7=105 .
5000%2F105=47.6 (rounded),
so the numbers you are looking for are
1%2A105=105
2%2A105=210
3%2A105=315
and so on, all the way up to
47%2A105=4935 .
There are obviously highlight%2847%29 common multiples of 3, 5 and 7 between 1 and 5000.

LCM of 3, 5, and 7 is 3(5)(7), or 105
Therefore, the multiples start at 105, and end at 5000%2F105, or less
5000%2F105 = 47.61904762
Therefore, the number of multiples from 105 to 4,935, inclusive is: highlight_green%2847%29
