Primes, HCF and LCM

Secondary 1

Two positive integers have HCF \(6\) and LCM \(180\).
Find all unordered pairs of integers that satisfy these conditions. An unordered pair means that \((a,b)\) and \((b,a)\) count as the same answer.

Optional hint: Write the numbers as \(6x\) and \(6y\). What must the HCF of \(x\) and \(y\) be?
