If the sum of two positive numbers is 65 and the square root of their product is 26, then the sum of their reciprocals is:
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
C
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{Lets first number}} = a \cr
& {\text{Second number}} = b \cr
& a + b = 65 \cr
& \sqrt {a \times b} = 26 \cr
& ab = 676 \cr
& {\text{Sum of reciprocal}} = \frac{1}{a} + \frac{1}{b} \cr
& = \frac{{b + a}}{{ab}} \cr
& = \frac{{65}}{{676}} \cr
& = \frac{5}{{52}} \cr} $$
