    110

    Explanation

    Product of numbers = 11 x 385 = 4235 Let the numbers be 11a and 11b . Then , 11a x 11b = 4235  =>  ab = 35 Now, co-primes with product  35 are (1,35) and (5,7) So, the numbers are ( 11 x 1, 11 x 35)  and (11 x 5, 11 x 7) Since one number lies 75 and 125, the suitable pair is  (55,77) Hence , required number = 77
