1.Relation and Function
hard
Let $A =\{2,3,4,5, \ldots ., 30\}$ and $^{\prime} \simeq ^{\prime}$ be an equivalence relation on $A \times A ,$ defined by $(a, b) \simeq (c, d),$ if and only if $a d=b c .$ Then the number of ordered pairs which satisfy this equivalence relation with ordered pair $(4,3)$ is equal to :
A
$5$
B
$6$
C
$8$
D
$7$
(JEE MAIN-2021)
Solution
$A =\{2,3,4,5, \ldots ., 30\}$
$(a, b)=(c, d) \quad \Rightarrow \quad a d=b c$
$(4,3)=( c , d ) \quad \Rightarrow \quad 4 d =3 c$
$\Rightarrow \frac{4}{3}=\frac{c}{d}$
$\frac{c}{d}=\frac{4}{3}$ and $c,d\, \in \, \{2,3, \ldots \ldots, 30\}$
$( c , d )=\{(4,3),(8,6),(12,9),(16,12),(20,15), (24,18),(28,21)\}$
No. of ordered pair $=7$
