1.

The number of possible pairs of numbers, whose product is 5400 and HCF is 30, is1. 12. 23. 34. None of the above

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 2

Given:

Product of numbers = 5400

HCF of numbers = 30

Formula required:

Product of two numbers = LCM of two number × HCF of two numbers

Calculations:

Let the numbers be '30a' '30b'

5400 = 30a × 30b 

⇒ a × b = 5400/(30 × 30) 

⇒ a × b = 6

Factors of 6 = 1, 2, 3, 6

Hence, we can write in 6 the form of  a × b = (2 × 3) or (1 × 6) 

Hence, the pair of numbers is = [(30 × 2), (30 × 3)] or [(30 × 1), (30 × 6)]

⇒ (60, 90) or (30, 180)

∴ The possible number of pairs is 2
