Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven:
Product of first two numbers = 143
Product of last two numbers = 195
Concept used:
Numbers are co-prime when the only common factor that they have is 1.
HCF = 1
Calculations:
Let the numbers be a, b, and c
⇒ x × y = 143, y × z = 195
These two products have y as common.
HCF of 143 and 195 = y = 13
⇒ a = 143/13 = 11
⇒ b = 195/13 = 15
∴ The three co-prime numbers are 11, 13, and 15.
Sum = 11 + 13 + 15 = 39
The answer is 39.
