If a wholesaler distributes items to several outlets (A, B, C and D) in the ratio of 1/2 : 1/11 : 1/12 : 1/13 then find the total number of items the wholesaler distributes?  Choose the correct answer:
A) 289
B) 1289
C) 1389
D) 1281
E) 128
Here, A : B : C : D = 1/2 : 1/11 : 1/12 : 1/13   1) L.C.M of 2 : 11 : 12 : 13 is 1716   2) Find the number of books each friend received --------- (To find no. of books each friend has, multiply the ratio with the L.C.M. calculated)   A = (1/2) x 1716 = 858   B = (1/11) x 1716 = 156   C = (1/12) x 1716 = 143   D = (1/13) x 1716 = 132   3) Total number of toys = (858 x + 156 x + 143 x + 132 x) = 1289 x   Minimum number of pens (x) = 1   Therefore, total number of items= 1289 items.   Correct option :1289
