e=a2+b2a2, =2b2a

Given e2=1114

1+b2a2=11142b2aa2+b2a2=117b2a               ....(1)

Also e'=a2+b2b2,  '=2a2b

Given e'2=118'

1+a2b2=1182a2ba2+b2b2=114a2b                 ....(2) New (1) ÷(2)b2a2=47b3a37a=4b                               ....(3) From (2)16b249+b2b249=11416b249b6549=1141649bb=4×6511×16                     ....(4)

Now the value of

77a+44b11(7a+4b)=11(4b+4b)=11×8b Value of 11×8b=11×8×4×6516×11=130
