How many ordered pairs of (m,n) integers satisfy `(m)/(12)=(12)/(n)`?A. `30`B. `15`C. `12`D. `10`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`(a)` `(m)/(12)=(12)/(n)`
`impliesmn=144impliesn=(144)/(m)`
We want to find here total number of divisors of `144`
`144=2^(4)3^(2)`
Total divisors are `(4+1)(2+1)=15`
But negative pairs are also possible hence `=30`
