The HCF and LCM of the two numbers x and y are respectively 7 and 42. If x + y = 35, then \(\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y}\) is equal to :1). 6/352). 5/423). 3/424). 1/42 |

Answer» $(\frac{1}{X} + \frac{1}{y} = \frac{{x + y}}{{xy}} = \frac{{35}}{{xy}})$ Using the known identity: product of TWO NOS. = LCM × HCF, we have: xy = 7 × 42 $(\Rightarrow \frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y} = \frac{{35}}{{7 \TIMES 42}} = \frac{5}{{42}})$ |
