This question was previously asked in
UPSSSC PET 2025 Question Paper (07-Sep-2025) (Shift-2)
The correct answer is

102

To find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of two numbers when given the product and the Highest Common Factor (HCF), we can use the relationship between LCM, HCF, and the product of two numbers. The formula is:

\(LCM \times HCF = \text{Product of the numbers}\)

Substituting the given values:

  1. \(LCM \times 15 = 1530\)
  2. To find the LCM, rearrange the equation: \(LCM = \frac{1530}{15}\)
  3. Calculate the division: \(1530 \div 15 = 102\)

Thus, the LCM of the two numbers is 102.

To ensure accuracy, it's important to verify that the product, when calculated with the found LCM and given HCF, matches the given product:

  1. Recalculate the product: \(102 \times 15 = 1530\), which matches the given.

Therefore, the correct answer is confirmed to be 102, which aligns with Option B. The correct choice is indeed 102.
