Answer:

Builder A is wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

All of them say that the flat is square-shaped. So the area should be the square of sides

Area=Side²

So let's see if the area is actually a square of a side

Builder A: Area=3853 square feet

Now, we see the digit at Ones place. By observing, we see that there is no number whose Ones digit when squared, gives 3 at place(Think of square of numbers from 1 to 10 and the Ones digit at the squared number)

Builder B and C: Area=3249 and 3844 square feet respectively

In both of there cases, we can see that there are numbers with there Ones digit squaring to 4 (B's case) and 9 (C's case) as 2 and 4.

Therefore, A is wrong

Answer:

a) Builder A

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the flat is in square shape the

measure of the side would be same

When a number is multiplied by the

same number the last number of the

product will be the square of the last

number of multiplied numbers .

As , we don't get 3 at last by multiplying

any number it is calculated easily.

[If you don't understand what I had explained

above you can consider the way of deriving

the answer I had provided below it can be

done in mind easily ]

Area of square = side × side

(let the side be x )

In case A ,

Area = 3853

= 3853 = x × x

= 3853 = x²

= √3853 = x

In case B ,

Area = 3249

= 3249 = x × x

= 3249 = x²

= √3249 = x

57 = x

In case C ,

Area = 3844

= 3844 = x × x

= 3844 = x²

= √3844 = x

62 = x

From above it is proved that

Builder A is giving wrong definition
