Solution

The correct option is C 696
Product of numbers =29×4147
Let the numbers be 29a and 29b.
Then, 29a×29b=24×4147
ab=143
Now, co-primes with product 143 are (1,143),(11,13)
So the prime numbers are (29×1,29×143)and(29×11,29×13)
Since both numbers are greater than 29, the suitable pair is (29×11,29×13)
(319+377)=696.
