If the sum of two numbers is 55 and the H.C.F. and L.C.M. of these numbers are 5 and 120 respectively, then the sum of the reciprocals of the numbers is equal to:

[A].	55/601
[B].	601/55
[C].	11/120
[D].	120/11

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the numbers be a and b.

Then, a + b = 55 and ab = 5 x 120 = 600.

The required sum =	1	+	1	=	a + b	=	55	=	11
	a		b		ab		600		120
