The product of two numbers is 2028 and their H.C.F is 13.
The product of two numbers is 2028 and their H.C.F is 13. The number of such pairs is?
Answer/Solution
2
Steps/Work
Let the numbers be 13a and 13b.
Then, 13a * 13b = 2028 => ab = 12.
Now, co-primes with product 12 are (1, 12) and (3, 4).
So, the required numbers are (13 * 1, 13 * 12) and (13 * 3, 13 * 4).
Clearly, there are 2 such pairs.
Answer: B
Then, 13a * 13b = 2028 => ab = 12.
