Question
Three numbers x, y, and z are co-prime to each other such that xy = 91 and yz = 154. Find the value of (x + y +
z).
Solution
Given, xy = 91 and yz = 154. Since x, y, and z are co-prime, the common factor in xy and yz must be y. The prime factorization of 91 is 7 * 13, and for 154 is 7 * 22. Thus, y = 7, x = 13, and z = 22. Therefore, x + y + z = 13 + 7 + 22 = 42.
