Abstract: We prove that, for every modulus

m a t h f r a k q

, every class of the narrow ray class group

H_{m a t h f r a k q} (m a t h b f K)

of an arbitrary number field

m a t h b f K

contains a product of three unramified prime ideals

m a t h f r a k p

of degree one with

m a t h f r a k N m a t h f r a k p l e (t (m a t h b f K) m a t h f r a k N m a t h f r a k q)^{3}

, where

t (m a t h b f K)

is an explicit function of

m a t h b f K

described in the paper. To achieve this result, we first obtain a sharp explicit Brun-Titchmarsh Theorem for ray classes and then an equally explicit improved Brun-Titchmarsh Theorem for large subgroups of narrow ray class groups. En route, we deduce an explicit upper bound for the least prime ideal in a quadratic subgroup of a narrow ray class group and also for the size of the least ideal that is a product of degree one primes in any given class of

H_{m} a t h f r a k q (m a t h b f K)

.
