(61-a)*(61-b)*(61-c)*(61-d)*(61-e)=475
If a,b,c,d,e are >0 and their values are in incresing order then find a+b+c+d=?

- first of all factorize 475- >>>> 5*5*19*1*1
now try to find all the factors in the form of the equation...
(61-56)*(61-56)*(61-42)*(61-60)*(61-60)
a =56
b=56
c=42
d=60
e=60
now as asked a+b+c+d+e = 274 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(43) No(23)
- since 495=5*5*19 (going with same line following set of numbers only satisfy the equation)
a=42
b=56
c=60
d=62
e=66
therefore a+b+c+d = 220 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(31) No(9)
- a=(61-19)=40
b=61-5=56
c=61-5=56
d=61-1=60
e=61-1=60
a,b,c,d>0and in increasing order
a+b+c+d=214 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(14) No(10)
- Since Here the value of a,b,c,d can be among any five output answer of
a =56
b=56
c=42
d=60
e=60
So, one can give answer only after having options in TCS. - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(2)
- guys it is written in the question that a,b,c,d,e is in increasing order
so values have to be in increasing order & have to be different - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(1)
- 475 = (-5) * (-1) * (1) * (5) * (19)
475 = (61-66) * (61-62) * (61-60) * (61-56) * (61-42)
a=66
b=62
c=60
d=56
now solve a+b+c+d - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(1)
- I think equation doesn't satisfy the condition "a,b,c,d,e are >0 and their values are in incresing order".

- Factorize 475 we get 19*5*5*1*1
now a=(61-19) b=(61-5) c=(61-5) d=(61-1) e=(61-1)
finally a= 42,b=56,c=56,d=60,e=60 in increasing order we got d values of a,b,c,d,e
after summing 42+56+56+60+60 = 274 Ans. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)

(61-42)*(61-56)*(61-60)*(61-62)*(61-66) as no should be increasing values of a,b,c,d,e
a =42
b=56
c=60
d=62
e=66
now as asked a+b+c+d+e = 286

- (61-a)*(61-b)*(61-c)*(61-d)*(61-e)=475
475=19*5*5*1*1
61-a=19
61-b=5
61-c=5
61-d=1
61-e=1
So, a=42
b=56
c=56
d=60
e=60
The values are in the increasing order .So,42,56,56,60,60
a+b+c+d=42+56+56+60=214
