Correct Answer: 119


Solution : We know that $a^3+b^3=(a+b)(a^2+b^2-ab)$
So, $17^3+7^3=(17+7)(17^2+7^2-17\times 7)$
Given,
$\frac{17^3+7^3}{17^2+7^2-k}=24$
⇒ $\frac{(17+7)(17^2+7^2-17\times 7)}{17^2+7^2-k}=24$
⇒ $17^2+7^2-17\times 7=17^2+7^2-k$
$\therefore k= 119$
Hence, the correct answer is 119.
