Question : 1
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 »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 : 2
By what least number should 4320 be multiplied so as to obtain a number which is a perfect cube ?
a) 80
b) 40
c) 60
d) 50
Answer »Answer: (d)
4320 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 5
= $2^3 × 3^3 × 2^2 × 5$
Required number = 2 × 5 × 5 = 50
Question : 3
Which of the following is a perfect square as well as a cube? 343, 125, 81, or 64
a) 64
b) 81
c) 343
d) 125
Answer »Answer: (a)
343 = 7 × 7 × 7
125 = 5 × 5 × 5
81 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3
64 = 8 × 8 = 4 × 4 × 4
We see that 343 and 125 are only perfect cubes of 7 and 5 respectively.
81 is only a perfect square of 9. 64 is a perfect square of 8 as well as a perfect cube of 4.
Question : 4
$√^3{8}/√{16} ÷ √{100/49} × √^3{125}$ is equal to :
a) $4/7$
b) 7
c) $7/100$
d) 1$3/4$
Answer »Answer: (d)
On simplification,
Expression = $2/4 × 7/10 × 5$
= $7/4 = 1{3}/4$
Question : 5
The least number, by which 1944 must be multiplied so as to make the result a perfect cube, is
a) 13
b) 2
c) 6
d) 3
Answer »Answer: (d)
2 | 1944 |
2 | 972 |
2 | 486 |
3 | 243 |
3 | 81 |
3 | 27 |
3 | 9 |
3 |
1944 = 2×2×2×3×3×3×3×3 = $2^3 × 3^3 × 3^2$
Clearly, 1944 should be multiplied by 3 to make the result a perfect cube.
Question : 6
$√^3{(333)^3 + (333)^3 + (334)^3 - 3 × 333 × 333 × 334}$ is equal to
a) 15
b) 12
c) 10
d) 11
Answer »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
