Question : 1

$√^3{8}/√{16} ÷ √{100/49} × √^3{125}$ is equal to :

a) $4/7$

b) 7

c) $7/100$

d) 1$3/4$

Answer: (d)

On simplification,

Expression = $2/4 × 7/10 × 5$

= $7/4 = 1{3}/4$

Question : 2

$√^3{{72.9}/{0.4096}}$ is equal to :

a) 13.6

b) 0.5625

c) 182

d) 5.625

Answer: (d)

$√^3{{72.9}/{0.4096}} = √^3{{729000}/{4096}}$

= $√^3{(90)^3/(16)^3} = 90/16 = 45/8 = 5.625$

Question : 3

The sum of the squares of 2 numbers is 146 and the square root of one of them is $√5$. The cube of the other number is

a) 1441

b) 1111

c) 1331

d) 1221

Answer: (c)

First number = $(√5)^2 = 5$

Let the second number be x.

$x^2 + 5^2 = 146$

$x^2$ = 146 –25 = 121

$x = √{121} = 11$

Cube of 11 =1331

Question : 4

$√^3{(333)^3 + (333)^3 + (334)^3 - 3 × 333 × 333 × 334}$ is equal to

a) 15

b) 12

c) 10

d) 11

Answer: (c)

We know that

$a^3 + b^3 + c^3$ - 3abc

= (a+b+c)$(a^2+b^2+c^2$ - ab - bc - ca)

= $1/2 (a + b + c) [(a - b)^2 + (b - c)^2 + (c - a)^2 ]$

∴ $√^3{(333)^3 + (333)^3 + (334)^3 - 3 × 333 × 333 × 334}$

= $√^3{1/2 (333 + 333 + 334)[(333 - 333)^2 + (333 - 334)^2 + (334 - 333)^2]}$

= $√^3{1/2 × 1000 × 2} = √^3{1000}$

= $√^3{10 × 10 × 10}$ = 10

Question : 5

$√^3{4{12}/125}$ is equal to

a) 2.4

b) 1.4

c) 1.8

d) 1.6

Answer: (d)

Expression = $√^3{4{12}/125}$

= $√^3{512/125} = √^3{{8 × 8 × 8}/{5 × 5 × 5}} = 8/5$ =1.6

Question : 6

$(5.5)^3 - (4.5)^3$ is equal to :

a) 75.25

b) 1

c) 74.25

d) 75

Answer: (a)

$(5.5)^3 - (4.5)^3$

= $(5.5 - 4.5)^3$ + 3 × 5.5 × 4.5 (5.5 - 4.5)

= $(1)^3$ + 74.25(1)

= 1 + 74.25 = 75.25
