Detailed Solution

First, we will find Factors of 48.
48={1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,48}
So, the list of pair of numbers which have LCM equal to 48 are,
(1,48), (2,48), (3,48), (4,48), (6,48), (8,48), (!2,48), (16,48), (24,28), (48,48)
We can also see divisor 3 and 16 are co-prime numbers.
Co-prime number’s LCM is equal to their product.
Now, we add multiples of 3 and 16 in list of factor of 48 that have their LCM equal to 48.
(3,16), (6,16), (12,16), (24,16) 
Here, the list of numbers whose LCM equal to 48 are -
(3,16), (6,16), (12,16), (24,16), (1,48), (2,48), (3,48), (4,48), (6,48), (8,48), (12,48), (16,48),
(24,48), (48,48).
∴ Hence, option 1, true is correct answer that is it has a list of possible pairs of numbers that have a LCM of 48.
