Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

$225 -1 = 224$ ,

$224 -3 = 221 $,
$221-  5 = 216$, 
$216 -7 = 209$,
$209 - 9= 200$ ,
$200 -11 = 189$
$189-  13 = 176$ , 
$176-  15 = 161$, 
$161 -17 = 144$,
$144- 19 = 125$
$125 - 21 = 104 $
$ 104-  23 = 81 $
$81-  25 = 56$
$ 56-  27 = 29$, 
$29 -29 = 0 = 15$ 
Therefore, D is the correct answer.

B Correct answer
Explanation
$0.09$: Since $(0.09)(0.09)=0.0081$, 

$\sqrt{0.0081}=0.09$. 

You can also rewrite $0.0081$ as $81\times {10}^{-4}$

$\sqrt { 81\times { 10 }^{ -4 } } =\sqrt { 81 } \times \sqrt { { 10 }^{ -4 } } =9\times { \left( { 10 }^{ -4 } \right)  }^{ \frac { 1 }{ 2 }  }=9\times { 10 }^{ -2 }=0.09$

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Repeated subtraction method: Subtract successive odd numbers from the given number starting from 1 till the difference becomes zero.
So, 484 - 1 = 483
483 - 3 = 480
480 - 5 = 475
475 - 7 = 468
468 - 9 = 459
459 - 11 = 448
448 - 13 = 435
435 - 15 = 420
420 - 17 = 403
403 - 19 = 384
384 - 21 = 363
363 - 23 = 340
340 - 25 = 315
315 - 27 = 288 
27 is the odd number, subtracting with 315 to get the value of 288.
