TO Find out the larger product as each pair below without actual multiplication
(1) 76 × 24 , 74 × 26
(2) 56 × 44, 54 × 46
(3) 10.6 × 9.4 , 10. 4 × 9.6
EVALUATION
ANSWER TO QUESTION : 1
Here
76 × 24
= ( 50 + 26) × ( 50 - 26 )
= (50)² - (26)²
Again
74 × 26
= ( 50 + 24 ) × ( 50 - 24 )
= (50)² - (24)²
Now
(26)² > (24)²
∴ - (24)² > - (26)²
∴ (50)² - (24)² > (50)² - (26)²
∴ 76 × 24 > 74 × 26
Hence 76 × 24 is larger
ANSWER TO QUESTION : 2
Here
56 × 44
= ( 50 + 6 ) × ( 50 - 6 )
= (50)² - (6)²
Again
54 × 46
= ( 50 + 4 ) × ( 50 - 4 )
= (50)² - (4)²
Now
(6)² > (4)²
∴ - (4)² > - (6)²
∴ (50)² - (4)² > (50)² - (6)²
∴ 54 × 46 > 56 × 44
Hence 54 × 46 is larger
ANSWER TO QUESTION : 3
Here
10.6 × 9.4
= ( 10 + 0.6 ) × ( 10 - 0.6 )
= (10)² - (0.6)²
Again
10.4 × 9.6
= ( 10 + 0.4 ) × ( 10 - 0.4 )
= (10)² - (0.4)²
Now
(0.6)² > (0.4)²
∴ - (0.4)² > - (0.6)²
∴ (10)² - (0.4)² > (10)² - (0.6)²
∴ 10.4 × 9.6 > 10.6 × 9.4
Hence 10.4 × 9.6 is larger
