Sum implies addition, so this problem requires the three numbers in the circle to add up to the fourth. One possibility is x = 6 + 17 + 28, and x = 51. Another possibility is for 28, the largest given number, to equal the sum of the other three. Then x + 6 + 17 = 28. So x = 28 − 23 =5. The answer is (A) and (D).
