Given:

\(\frac{\left(17\right) ^{3}+\left( 7\right) ^{3}}{(17^{2}+7^{2}-k)} =24\)

Concept used:

a3 + b3 = (a + b)(a2 + b2 - ab)

Calculation:

\(\frac{\left(17\right) ^{3}+\left( 7\right) ^{3}}{(17^{2}+7^{2}-k)} =24\)

⇒ \(\frac{(17+7)(17^{2}+7^{2}-7\times17)}{(17^{2}+7^{2}-k)} =24\)

⇒ \(\frac{(17^{2}+7^{2}-119)}{(17^{2}+7^{2}-k)} =1\)

⇒ 172 + 72 - 119 = 172 + 72 - k

⇒ k = 119

∴ The value of k is 119.
