Directions: In the following questions, the Assertions $(A) $and Reason(s) $(R)$ have been put forward. Read both the statements carefully and choose the correct alternative from the following:
Assertion (A): 300000000 is equal to $3 × 10^8$
Reasons (R): An exponent refers to the number of times a number is multiplied by itself
Assertion (A): The common factor of 2a2b4c2, 8a4b3c4 and 6a3b4c2 is 2a2b3c2
Reasons (R): A common factor is a number that can be divided into two different numbers, without leaving a remainder.
Directions : In the following questions, the Assertions $(A)$ and Reason $(s) \ (R)$ have been put forward. Read both the statements carefully and choose the correct alternative from the following:
Assertion $(A)$ : Natural numbers are commutative for subtraction
Reason $(R)$ : Rational numbers are commutative under addition and multiplication
Directions: In the following questions, the Assertions $(A)$ and Reason$(s) (R)$ have been put forward. Read both the statements carefully and choose the correct alternative from the following: Assertion $(A):$ The area of a square of side $a$ is $a \times a$. Reasons ( $R$ ): The area of a square is the measure of the space or surface occupied by it. It is equal to the product of the length of its two sides.
Assertion (A): Whole numbers are not associative for subtraction
Reason (R): The associative property states that the sum or the product of three or more numbers does not change if they are grouped in a different way.
Directions: In the following questions, the Assertions $(A)$ and Reason(s) $(R)$ have been put forward. Read both the statements carefully and choose the correct alternative from the following:
Assertion (A): The root of the equation $z + 4 = -8$ is $-32$
Reason (R): the linear equation involves only one unknown, it is called “univariate”. The quadratic equation contains only powers of $x$ that are non-negative
Assertion (A): The factorisation of ab - a - b + 1 is (a - 1) (b - 1)
Reasons (R): The factorisation is defined as expressing or decomposing a number or an algebraic expression as a product of its prime factors or irreducible factors.
Assertion (A): The unit digit in the square of the number 1111 is 1
Reasons (R): Units digit of a number is the digit in the one’s place of the number. i.e. it is the rightmost digit of the number.
Assertion (A): 10000 is a perfect square number
Reasons (R): A perfect square is a number that can be expressed as the product of an integer by itself or as the second exponent of an integer.
