20. (3) According to the question, Ist number ( times ) lind number ( =mathrm{HCF} times mathrm{LCM} ) ( Rightarrow 2 times 45 x times 3 times 45 y=45 times 270 ) ( therefore quad x times y=frac{6}{6}=1 ) Hence, smaller number ( =2 times 1 times 45=90 ) ( x=90 ) ( therefore ) ( (x)^{2}=(90)^{2}=8100 )
