Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(30\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(x y z=24=2^3 \times 3\) Let \(x=2^{x_1} \times 3^{y_1}\), \(y=2^{x_2} \times 3^{y_2}\) and \(z=2^{x_3} \times 3^{y_3}\) \(x_1+x_2+x_3=3\) and \(y_1+y_2+y_3=1\) Number of non-negative integral solution \(={ }^{3+3-1} C_{3-1}={ }^5 C_2=10\) Number of non-negative integral…
