Default Tensile Strength Question

Help an old mind come to the correct conclusion G.

The situation is (2) steel straps side by side and fully in contact with a
bolt hole at each end . One is 4130 with about 80,000 psi tensile and the
other a heat treated 4130 to a 124,000 psi tensile strength.

Is the combination strength 80,000 or 124,000 or
204,000 psi tensile??

Thanks, Dick
