The sum of the two numbers is 12 and their product is 35. What is the sum of the reciprocals of these numbers?  Answers: A) 12/35 B) 1/35 C) 35/8 D) 7/32 E) 7/33
Let the numbers be a and b. Then,   a + b = 12 and ab = 35.   (a + b)/ab = 12/35   = (1/b + 1/a) = 12/35   Sum of reciprocals of given numbers = 12/35.   12/35NSWER:12/35
