Answers
Answer:
the square root o
the number obtained
lution Let us find the root of 8,460.
Since 8,460 is more than 912. the next square number will be 922
clearly
912 < 8,460 < 922
As
(92)2 = 92 x 92 - 8,464
To obtain 8,464, 4 must be added to 8,460
Required
Answer:
(i)10 days
(ii)A=30 days
B=60 days
C=20 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
A and B together can do a piece of work in 20 days,
A+B=1/20 days
B and C together can do it in 15 days,
B+C=1/15 days
C and A together can do it in 12 days.
C+A=1/12 days
A+B+B+C+C+A=1/20+1/15+1/12
2(A+B+C)=3+4+5/60
2(A+B+C)=12/60
(A+B+C)=1/10
(I) it takes 10 days to working all together
(ii)(A+B+C)=1/10
substitute A+B=1/20 days in above Equation
C=1/10-1/20
C=2-1/20
C=1/20
B+C=1/15 days substitute C in the Equation
B=1/15-1/20
B=4-3/60
B=1/60
(A+B+C)=1/10 substitute C and B in equation to get A
A=1/10-1/60-1/20
A=6-1-3
A=2/60
A=1/30
