The HCF of three natural numbers x, y and z is 13. If the sum of x, y and z is 117, then how many ordered triplets (x, y, z) exist? 1) 27 2) 28 3) 54 4) 55
Read Solution (Total 1)
-
- 28
x+y+z= 13*(a+b+c)=117
a+b+c=9
Each of a,b,c >1.
a'+b'+c'=6 where a'=a-1, b'=b-1, c'=c-1
so take triplets for a',b',c'
no of triplets are (6+3-1)C(3-1)=8C2=28 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
