Q. If \( \sqrt[x]{3} \times \sqrt[y]{5} = 10125 \), find \( 12xy \)
(a) 1    (b) \( \frac{1}{3} \)    (c) 2    (d) \( \frac{1}{2} \)

✏️ Solution

\( \sqrt[x]{3} = 3^{1/x},\quad \sqrt[y]{5} = 5^{1/y} \)

\( 3^{1/x} \cdot 5^{1/y} = 10125 \)

\( 10125 = 3^4 \cdot 5^3 \)

Compare powers:

\( \frac{1}{x} = 4,\quad \frac{1}{y} = 3 \)

\( x = \frac{1}{4},\quad y = \frac{1}{3} \)

\( 12xy = 12 \cdot \frac{1}{4} \cdot \frac{1}{3} \)

\( = 1 \)

Correct Option: (a) 1

\( \boxed{1} \)
