Detailed Solution

Given three numbers are 17, 23 and 29.
Firstly, we have to find H.C.F, writing prime factors of all given number,
17=17×1 23=23×1 29=29×1  
Since, only 1 is common factor of all number,
H.C.F = 1.
The formula for finding L.C.M is
= Highest common factor × Product of remaining prime factors
=1×17×19×23 =7429  
L.C.M = 7429
Hence, option 3 is correct.
