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: (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: (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: (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: (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: (d)

21944
2972
2486
3243
381
327
39
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: (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
