Exponents Exercise 3.3 Solution :

Question no – (1) 

Solution : 

(a) 256, 361, 225 – by Prime factorisation


√256

= √2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

= 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

= 16


√361

= √19 × 19

= 19


√225

= √5 × 5 × 3 × 3

= 5 × 3

= 15

(b) 36, 81, 121 – by Estimation

(b) √36 = 6

One’s place digit ‘6’

6 × 6 = 36

√81 = 9

√121 = 11

(c) 169, 144, 324 – by Subtraction

Subtraction 169

(1) 169 – 1 = 168

(2) 168 – 3 = 165

(3) 165 – 5 = 160

(4) 160 – 7 = 153

(5) 153 – 9 = 144

(6) 144 – 11 = 133

(7) 133 – 13 = 120

(8) 120 – 15 = 105

(9) 105 – 107 = 88

(10) 88 – 19 = 69

(11) 69 – 21 = 48

(12) 48 – 23 = 25

(13) 25 – 25 = 0

∴ Total No of steps = 13

∴ √169 = 13

= 144

(1) 144 – 1 = 143

(2) 143 – 3 = 140

(3) 140 – 5 = 135

(4) 135 – 7 = 128

(5) 128 – 9 = 118

(6) 118 – 11 = 107

(7) 107 – 13 = 94

(8) 94 – 15 = 79

(9) 79 – 17 = 62

(10) 62 – 19 = 43

(11) 43 – 21 = 22

(12) 22 – 22 = 0

∴ Total steps = 12

∴ √144 = 12

(d) 4761, 7921, 4225 – by Division

Division method : 

(i) ∴ √4761 = 69

(ii) ∴ √7921 = 89

(iii) ∴ √4225 = 65

Question no – (2)

Solution : 

(a) 248

23 will subtracted to make perfect square

(b) 330

6 will be subtracted to get perfect square

(c) 200

∴ 4 will be subtracted

(d) 175

6 will be subtracted

(e) 230

5 will be subtracted

Question no – (4) 

Solution : 

(a) 3, 4, 12 and 15

∴ L.C.M = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 = 60

3, 5 are not pair

So, 60 × 3 × 5 = 900

∴ Required number 900

(b) 4, 6, 8 and 12

= ∴ L.CM is = 2 × 2 × 3 × 2 = 24

Here, 2, 3 are not pair

so, 24 × 2 × 3 = 144

Required number is 144

(c) 6, 15, 18 and 20

= L.C.M is = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5 = 180

Here, 5 is not pair

180 × 5 = 900 is required number.

Exponents Exercise 3.4 Solution :

Question no – (1) 

Solution :

(a) 64/121

= √64/121

= 8/11

(b) 16/25

= √16/25

= √4 × 4/5 × 5

= 4/5

(c) 256/676

= √256/676

= √25 × 25/26 × 26

= 25/26

(d) 361/625

= √361/625

= √19 × 19/25 × 25

= 19/25

(e) 4761/6724

= √4761/6724

= √69 × 69/82 × 82

= 69/82

(f) 196/1681

= √196/1681

= √14 × 14/41 × 41

= 14/41

Question no – (2) 

Solution : 

(a) 148.84

12.2

(b) 67.24

√67.24

= 8.2
