Question 71 Mark
By just examining the units digits, can you tell which of the following cannot be whole squares$?$
$i. 1026$
$ii. 1028$
$iii. 1024$
$iv. 1022$
$v. 1023$
$vi. 1027$
Answer
If the units digit of a number is $2, 3, 7$ or $8,$ the number cannot be a whole square.
$i. 1026$ has $6$ as the units digit, so it is possibly a perfect square.
$ii. 1028$ has $8$ as the units digit, so it cannot be a perfect square.
$iii. 1024$ has $4$ as the units digit, so it is possibly a perfect square.
$iv. 1022$ has $2$ as the units digit, so it cannot be a perfect square.
$v. 1023$ has $3$ as the units digit, so it cannot be a perfect square.
$vi. 1027$ has $7$ as the unit digit, so it cannot be a perfect square.
Hence, by examining the units digits, we can be certain that $1028, 1022, 1023$ and $1027$ cannot be whole squares.

$\sqrt{\frac{150}{7}}=\frac{5\sqrt{2}\times\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{7}}$
$=\frac{5\times1.414\times1.732}{2.646}=4.628$

Question 711 Mark
Given that, $\sqrt{2}=1.414,\sqrt{3}=1.732,\sqrt{5}=2.236$ and $\sqrt{7}=2.646,$ evaluate each of the following:
$\sqrt{\frac{2500}{3}}$
Answer
Given,
$\sqrt{3}=1.732$
$\sqrt{\frac{2500}{3}}=\frac{\sqrt{2500}}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{50}{1.732}=28.867$

Given that, $\sqrt{2}=1.414,\sqrt{3}=1.732,\sqrt{5}=2.236$ and $\sqrt{7}=2.646,$ evaluate each of the following:
$\sqrt{\frac{144}{7}}$
Answer
Given,
$\sqrt{7}=2.646$
$\sqrt{\frac{144}{7}}=\frac{\sqrt{144}}{\sqrt{7}}=\frac{12}{2.646}=4.536$

Question 731 Mark
Find the value of:
$\sqrt{72}\times\sqrt{338}$
Answer
We have,
$\sqrt{72}\times\sqrt{338}=\sqrt{72\times338}$
$=\sqrt{2\times2\times2\times3\times3\times2\times13\times13}$
$=\sqrt{2\times2\times2\times2\times3\times3\times13\times13}$
$=2\times2\times3\times13$
$=156$

Question 751 Mark
Find the value of:
$\frac{\sqrt{80}}{\sqrt{405}}$
Answer
We have,
$\frac{\sqrt{80}}{\sqrt{405}}=\sqrt{\frac{80}{405}}$
$=\sqrt{\frac{16}{81}}=\frac{\sqrt{16}}{\sqrt{81}}=\frac{4}{9}$

Question 761 Mark
By just examining the units digits, can you tell which of the following cannot be whole squares?
i. 1026
ii. 1028
iii. 1024
iv. 1022
v. 1023
vi. 1027
Answer
If the units digit of a number is 2, 3, 7 or 8, the number cannot be a whole square.
i. 1026 has 6 as the units digit, so it is possibly a perfect square.
ii. 1028 has 8 as the units digit, so it cannot be a perfect square.
iii. 1024 has 4 as the units digit, so it is possibly a perfect square.
iv. 1022 has 2 as the units digit, so it cannot be a perfect square.
v. 1023 has 3 as the units digit, so it cannot be a perfect square.
vi. 1027 has 7 as the unit digit, so it cannot be a perfect square.
Hence, by examining the units digits, we can be certain that 1028, 1022, 1023 and 1027 cannot be whole squares.
