      B 144 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 120 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 100 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 150 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      We know that the product of two numbers is equal to the product of their LCM and HCF: LCM Γ— HCF = Product of the two numbers. Let the second number be x. LCM Γ— HCF = 48 Γ— x 720 Γ— 12 = 48 Γ— x 8640 = 48 Γ— x x = 8640 Γ· 48 x = 180. Correct option: a
