At the age of 20 we always think of what others think of us;
At the age of 40 we don’t care what others think of us;
At the age of 60 we realize that nobody has been thinking of us

1) 22 2) 27 3) 31 4) 58

(mn-1)h=57 , where a=hm and b=hn

Minimum is for m=4,n=5 and h=3 =>12+15=27

36xy=4320 =>xy=120=2^3*3*5
The number of ways in which N can be resolved in two factors such that both the factors are co-prime to each other are 2^(n-1) , where n is the number of prime factors

Hence no. of pairs =2^2=4

If it is correct I shall post the approach


Prime Numbers are what is left when you have taken all the patterns away. I think prime Numbers are like life. They are very logical but you could never work out the rules, even if you spent all your time thinking about them.

No answer is not 15/4

Sum of reciprocals of the divisors = sum of the divisors/ Number
