I think for the question above, instead of 2 · 3^2 · 7 it is <span>2 · 3^2 · 5.
</span>
Two numbers have prime factorizations of 2^2 • 3 • 5 and 2 • 3^2 • 5 (note 2 squared & 3 squared).
Now, to choose the GCF, you choose, for each base factor in either number, the least exponent-ed one; so the GCF needs a factor 2, a factor 3, and a factor 5. Thus the GCF is 30 (their product). [i.e,2 squared is not a common factor]
<span>To create the LCM, you choose, for each base factor in either number, the greatest exponented one. Thus, LCM needs a factor 2 squared, 3 squared, and 5, giving LCM = 4(9)(5) = 180.</span><span />

Dunno the question... But I sure hope if you jump out of a plane the parachute is ALREADY inspected :d
A GCF is the greatest common factor. It is the largest number that fits into other numbers. A seven cannot fit into a number smaller than itself, that doesn't work. Try to fit 7 into a smaller number like 4, it doesn't work.
Option A is 21 and 3 and Option C is 7 and 1. Those can be eliminated because 7 is larger than 3 and 1.
Option B is 7, 14. 7 Is the largest number that goes into 7 and it goes into 14. So B works.
28 and 7 is Option D. 7 is the largest number that goes into 7 and it goes into 28, so D works.
