a+b=35
ab=250
a=250/b
250/b+b=35
250+b2/b=35
b2-35b+250=0
b2-25b-10b+250=0
b(b-25)-10(b-25)=0
(b-25)(b-10)=0
b=25,10
let b=10
a+10=35
a=25.
sum of their reciprocal=1/25+1/10
=35/250
=7/50
therefore sum of there reciprocals=7/50

Answer:

a+b=35

ab=250

a=250/b

250/b+b=35

250+b2/b=35

b2-35b+250=0

b2-25b-10b+250=0

b(b-25)-10(b-25)=0

(b-25)(b-10)=0

b=25,10

let b=10

a+10=35

a=25.

sum of their reciprocal=1/25+1/10

=35/250

=7/50

therefore sum of there reciprocals=7/50
