What is the square of 0.16? |
|
A. 0.004 |
|
B. 0.04 |
|
C. 0.4 |
|
D. 4 |

√0.16 | = √16 / 100 |
= √16 / √100 |
‹=› 4 / 10 |
‹=› 0.4. |
|
5. |
What number should be divided by √0.25 to give the results as 25? |
|
A. 12.5 |
|
B. 25 |
|
C. 50 |
|
D. 125 |
Solution |
Let the required number be x. |
Then, x / √0.25 | = 25 |
‹=› x / 0.5 = 25 |
‹=›x= 25 x 0.5 |
= 12.5. |
