Question

the greater number between (root 17 - root 12) and (root 11 - root 6) is

root 17 - root 12

root 11 - root 6

both are equal

cannot compare

Answer 1

√17=4.1231, √12=3.4641
√17-√12=4.1231-3.4641
=0.659
√11=3.3166,. √6=2.4494
√11-√6=3.3166-2.4494
=0.8672
both are not equal

Answer 2

Answer:

Option B is the right answer. √11- √6 is greater that √17- √12.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find (i) √17- √12

The value of  

√17=4.123

√12=3.464

Substitute the above two values in (i)

The equation becomes,

√17- √12=4.123-3.464  

√17- √12=0.659

To find (ii) √11- √6

The value of

√11=3.316

√6=2.449

Substitute the above two values in (ii)

The equation becomes,  

√11- √6=3.316-2.449  

√11- √6=0.867

From (i) and (ii), we can come to a conclusion that from the given two equations, √11- √6 is the greatest value.
