    If \[H\]is the harmonic mean between P and Q, then the value of \[\frac{H}{P}+\frac{H}{Q}\]is:

    A)  \[2\]

    B)  \[\frac{PQ}{P+Q}\]

    C)  \[\frac{1}{2}\]

    D)  \[\frac{P+Q}{PQ}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\because \]H is the harmonic mean between P and Q \[\therefore \] \[H=\frac{2PQ}{P+Q}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\frac{H}{P}=\frac{2Q}{P+Q}\]and \[\frac{H}{Q}=\frac{2P}{P+Q}\] \[\therefore \] \[\frac{H}{P}+\frac{H}{Q}=\frac{2Q}{P+Q}+\frac{2P}{P+Q}=\frac{2(P+Q)}{P+Q}=2.\]
