Question : 84 of 200

Marks: +1, -0

The gcd of two numbers is 85 and their sum is 1020. One such pair of the numbers is

Solution:

Let the two numbers be 85a and 85b (where gcd (a,b = 1)
Given

85a + 85b = 1020⇒a + b = 12

Possible values of

(a, b) = \{(1,11), (5,7)\}

Hence required pair of two numbers are (85, 935)or (425, 595).
