B Correct answer
Explanation

For $402$

Nearest perfect square is $400$
$\sqrt{400}$ $=$ $20$
$402$ $-$ $400$ $=$ $2$
For $1989$
Nearest perfect square is $1936$

$\sqrt{1936}$ $=$ $44$
$1936$ $-$ $1989$ $=$ $53$

For $3250$
Nearest perfect square is $3249$

$\sqrt{3249}$ $=$ $57$
$3250$ $-$ $3249$ $=$ $1$
For $825$
Nearest perfect square is $784$
$\sqrt{784}$ $=$ $28$
$825$ $-$ $784$ $=$ $41$
For $4000$
Nearest perfect square is $3969$
$\sqrt{3969}$ $=$ $63$
$4000$ $-$ $3969$ $=$ $31$
From this, Option B is correct answer.

Mr. Hansraj wants to find the least number of boxes to be added to get a perfect square. He already has $7924$ boxes with him. How many more boxes are required?

  1. $819$
  2. $412$
  3. $419$
  4. $176$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Find square root by long division method.

$\therefore \sqrt {7924}$ = $89.01$

Hence, the perfect square number smaller than $7924$ is
$89^2 = 7921$
The next perfect square no. is $90^2 = 8100$

So, $8100 - 7924 = 176$
Therefore, the man needs $176$ more boxes in order to get a perfect square number.
So, option D is correct.

  2. $30.21$
  3. $98.23$
  4. $23.11$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The square root of $850$ is $\sqrt {850}=\sqrt {25 \times 34}=5\sqrt {34}$

Square root of $34$ lie between $5$ and $6$.
 square of $5.5$ is $30.25$ 
Now, we can say that square root of $34$ lie between $5.5$ and $6$.
Now, square of $5.75$ is $33.06$
So, square root of $34$ lie between $5.75$ and $6$.
Now, we have to choose the number $5.85$
$(5.85)^2=34.225$ which is greater than $34$ and close to $34$
So, assume a number $5.84$.
$(5.84)^2=34.1056$
$(5.83)^2=33.9889$
Hence, we can say that square root of 34 lie between $5.83$ and $5.84$.
So, $5\times 5.83=29.15$.
