My words....

Here I present a few basic questions questions on square root and


other related issues. I wish that more people should become
entrepreneurs. An ordinary Indian entrepreneur wishes to remain an honest
entrepreneur and contribute to the development of nation but we have to
strengthen those institutions which truly promote entrepreneurship, not just
degree granting institutions. Let us work together to promote knowledge,
wisdom, social development and education. We believe in free education
for all, free support for all, entrepreneurship opportunities and training for
all. Let us work together for these goals. ... I alone cant do much, I need
support of perosns like you .......... ...

By what least number 4320 be
multiplied to obtain number
which is a perfect cube?
In a cube, every factor must be in triplet. We
have to chech whether each factor is in triplet
or not in 4320.
Let us find the factors of 4320 :
=2*2*2*2*2*5*3*3*3
we have five 2, three 3, and one 5. we need to
multiply it by one 2 and two 5.
=2*5*5 = 50 answer

A general wishes to draw up his 36581 soldiers
in the form of a solid square ,after arranging
them ,he found that some of them are left
over .How many are left?

Let us find square root of 36581


divide it by : 1, we get 2 as remainder, now we
have 265 we have to divide by 29, we get :
(29*9) = 261 the remainder is : 481 we can
now divide it by : 381,we get : 381*1 = 381
the remainder is :100 answer

A little child is making a cubic building out of small
cubical wooden parts. Each part has one side of 1 inch.
The child has 500 parts. How many parts will be left out
after the building with maximum wooden part is ready?

Options :
a. 157 168 211 121
answer : a
cube of 7 is 343 and cube of 8 is 512, so the
child would use 343 wooden parts.

students from an institution collected as many
paise from each students as there are number of
students. Thus they collected Rs. 17344.89
How much did each student contribute ?

Let us first convert this amount in paise :


1734489
now find square root of this amount
1317
so each student has contributed Rs. 13.17

.The greatest four digit perfect
square number is

If we multiply 100, we get smallest 5 digit


square number. So let us square up 99.
to square 99 (100 – 1)^2, we get a^2-2ab+b^2
=10000 – 200 +1
=9801 answer

Put these in ascending order :
2/8, 5/-7, 18/-23 ?
In ascending order, we put from small to big
the smallest number here is 18/-23, here confusion is
between 5/7 and 18/23, so compare them. Multiply
the numerator of each number with denominator of
other number, we get : 115 and 126. the bigger is 126,
but the numbers are negative, so the bigger number is
115. thus -126 is smaller. so correct order will be :
18/-23, 5/-7, 2/8 answer
