The sum of the two numbers is 16 and their product is 35. What is the sum of the reciprocals of these numbers? Select the correct option.
A) 16/35  B) 1/35  C) 35/8  D) 7/32  E) None of these
Let the numbers be a and b. Then, a+b=16 and ab =35.   a+b/ab=16/35; (1/b+1/a)=16/35   Sum of reciprocals of given numbers=16/35.   Correct Option: 16/35
