Answer : 3. "85"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 85 Explanation: Since the numbers are co-prime, they contain only 1 as the common factor.Also, the given two products have the middle number in common.So, middle number = H.C.F of 551 and 1073 = 29;First number = 551/29 = 19Third number = 1073/29 = 37.Required sum = 19 + 29 + 37 = 85.
