Question
Expand : $\left(2 m+\frac{1}{5}\right)^3$

Answer

$\begin{aligned} & \text { Here, } a=2 m \text { and } b=\frac{1}{5} \\ & \left(2 m+\frac{1}{5}\right)^3 \\ & =(2 m)^3+3(2 m)^2\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)+3(2 m)\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)^2+\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)^3 \\ & \quad \ldots\left[\because(a+b)^3=a^3+3 a^2 b+3 a b^2+b^3\right] \\ & =8 m^3+3\left(4 m^2\right)\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)+3(2 m)\left(\frac{1}{25}\right)+\frac{1}{125} \\ & =8 m^3+\frac{12 m^2}{5}+\frac{6 m}{25}+\frac{1}{125}\end{aligned}$
