Divide 50 in two parts so that the sum of reciprocals is (1/12), the numbers are

• Ans: 20 and 30.
  as 1/20+1/30= 1/12.:)

• no are 20 and 30;
  20+30=50;
  1/20+1/30=(2+3)/60=5/60=1/12

• 1/x=1/50-x=1/12
  after solcing x=30 another no.20

• let two parts are x and y.so x+y=50
  given sum of reciprocals is 1/12.so 1/x+1/y=1/12
  12(x+y)=xy.
  12(50)=xy
  xy=600
  in this sum(x+y)is 50 and product(xy)is 600 the numbers are 20 and 30.
