    Three numbers which are co-prime to each other are such that the product of the first two is 551 and that of the last two is 1073. The sum of the three numbers is :

    ক)
    83
    খ)
    89
    গ)
    85
    ঘ)
    79

    Explanation

    Since the numbers are co-prime, they contain only 1 as the common factor. Also, the given two products have the middle number in common. So, middle number = H.C.F of 551 and 1073 = 29; First number = 551/29 = 19 Third number = 1073/29 = 37. Required sum = 19 + 29 + 37 = 85.
