Answer: Option D. -> 3600
L.C.M. of 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 is 120
Now 120 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 5
To make it a perfect square, it must be multiplied by 2 × 3 × 5
So, required number
$$\eqalign{
& = {2^2} \times {2^2} \times {3^2} \times {5^2} \cr
& = 3600 \cr} $$

Answer: Option D. -> 13
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{Clearly, }}a*b = \sqrt {{a^2} + {b^2}} \cr
& \therefore 5*12 \cr
& = \sqrt {{5^2} + {{12}^2}} \cr
& = \sqrt {25 + 144} \cr
& = \sqrt {169} \cr
& = 13 \cr} $$
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{Clearly, }}a*b = \sqrt {{a^2} + {b^2}} \cr
