Find an odd natural numbers x such that LCM (x, 40) = 1400​

Let x be odd such that LCM {x,40} = 1400 .

Since 1400 = 23×52×7 , then

x ∈ {5m×7n∣(m,n) ∈ {0,1,2}×{0,1}} .

By testing these values, we find that x = 175 .

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.
