Correct Answer: 88


Solution : The numbers are in the ratio 3 : 5, and their highest common factor (HCF) is 11.
This means that the numbers are (3 × HCF) and (5 × HCF).
The first number = 3 × 11 = 33
The second number = 5 × 11 = 55
The sum of the two numbers = 33 + 55 = 88
Hence, the correct answer is 88.
