The product of two digits number is 2160 and their HCF is 12. The numbers are________?
Correct answer: A. (36,60)
- A. (36,60)
- B. (12,180)
- C. (96,25)
- D. (72,30)
Explanation
For 36 and 60, the product is 36 x 60 = 2160 and their HCF is 12, since both divide by 12 but have no larger common divisor. Hence (36, 60) satisfies both conditions. The pair (12, 180) has the correct product but its HCF is 12 as well while 180 is not a two-digit number, so it does not meet the stated condition.

About Ratio and Proportion
Ratios compare quantities in the same units, while proportions state that two ratios are equal. Problems cover simplification, division in a given ratio, direct and inverse variation, scale, and missing terms, with attention to the difference between a ratio and a fraction representing part of a whole.
