In MATLAB find the smallest number of unique multiplesof3 th

In MATLAB, find the smallest number of unique multiples-of-3 that, when multiplied together, produce a result that exceeds 500,000. Notice that 3 × 6 < 500,000, so 2 is not the desired number. Similarly, 3 × 6 × 9 < 500,000, so 3 is not the desired number. Et cetera.

Use a while-loop. Display both the number of terms involved and their product (which should be larger than 500,000).

Solution

Here is the code for you:

count = 1;

result = 3;

while(result <= 500000)

count = count + 1;

result = result * count * 3;

end

fprintf(\'The number of terms involved in their product is: %d\ \', count);

fprintf(\'And the terms are: \');

for i = 1 : count

fprintf(\'%d \', i * 3);

end

fprintf(\'\ \');
