Let the numbers be 12x and 12y, where x and y are co-primes.
Product of the numbers = 144xy
144xy=6336
xy=44
44 can be written as the product of two factors in three ways, i.e., 1×44,2×22,4×11
As x and y are relatively prime, (x,y) can be (1,44) or (4,11) but not (2,22).
Hence two possible pairs exist.
