What is the least number of oranges exactly distributed among groups of 10, 11, and 17 students?

Answer: 1870
Explanation

Find the least common multiple (LCM) of 10, 11, and 17.

The LCM of 10, 11, and 17 is the smallest number that is a multiple of all three numbers.

Calculate the LCM.

The prime factorization of the numbers is:

10 = 2 × 5

11 = 11

17 = 17

The LCM is the product of the highest powers of all prime factors: LCM = 2 × 5 × 11 × 17 = 1870.
