Let S be the set of all ordered pairs (x,y) of positive integers, with HCF (x,y) = 16 and LCM (x,y) = 48000. The number of elements in S is (A) 4 (B) 8 (C) 16 (D) 32

Answer»

Correct Option :- (B) 8

Explanation :-

48000 = 16 × 3000 = 16 × [31× 23 × 53

As H.C.F. is 16 So 23 can be selected in 1 way & 31 × 53 can be seleted in  (1+ 1) (3 +1) = 8 ways 

No of ordred pairs = 8
