For any integer k greater than 1, the symbol k* denotes the product of all integers between 1 and k, inclusive. If k* is a multiple of 1701 what is the least possible value of k?	Choose the most appropriate option.
A) 8	B) 10	C) 12	D) 14	E) 16
1701 = 3*3*3*3*3*7   Thus k must include numbers at least up to the number 12 so that there are at least five appearances of 3 (that is: 3, 6, 9=3*3, and 12).   The answer is 12.
