1. Which is the smallest positive number that must be added to 2,010 in order to a
obtain a perfect square?
2. Which letter in the English alphabet has four times as many letters after it than before it?
Answers
Here’s a quick way to solve this yourself.
Let’s assume…
x is the number of letters before your mystery letter
y is the number of letters after your mystery letter
That means the total number of letters in the alphabet (including your 1 mystery letter) is x+y+1. So we know the following:
x+y+1=26
Since we also know that there are 4 times as many letters after your letter as before your letter, we also know that
4x=y
Now, we can just substitute “4x” in for “y” in that first equation, getting the following:
x+4x+1=26
→ 5x+1=26
→ 5x=25
→ x=5
So if x (the number of letters before your mystery letter) is 5, then your letter must be letter #6 - F!

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. We have,
2010
So, 44<√2010
1936<√2010
45>√2010
2025>2010
Hence, it is clear the number is 15that should be added
2. The alphabet will be F. Because it have 5 letter before it and 20 letter after it......
