  1. The LCM of two multiples of 12 is 1056. If one of the number is 132, the other number is
    1. 12
    2. 72
    3. 96
    4. 132
Correct Option: C

Let the numbers be 12p and 12q.
∴ Their LCM = 12pq , when p and q are prime to each other.

∴ q =
1056
= 8 [∴ 12p = 132 ]
132

∴ Other number = 12q = 12 × 8 = 96
