Question:

The value of $\frac{(2.7)^3-(2.2)^3}{(2.7)^2+2.7×2.2+(2.2)^2}$ is

Options:

4.9

0.5

0.05

0.49

Correct Answer:

0.5

Explanation:

Here, we use the formula: $a^3 - b^3 = (a - b)(a^2 + ab +b^2)$

Now, put this formula in numerator:

$\frac{(2.7)^3-(2.2)^3}{(2.7)^2+2.7×2.2+(2.2)^2}$ = $\frac{(2.7 - 2.2)((2.7)^2+2.7×2.2+(2.2)^2)}{(2.7)^2+2.7×2.2+(2.2)^2}$

= (2.7 - 2.2)

= 0.5
