Worked practice questions

Compute 105² without direct multiplication:

  1. 10025
  2. 10525
  3. 11025
  4. 11225
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. 11025

105² = (100 + 5)² = 100² + 2·100·5 + 5² = 10000 + 1000 + 25 = 11025. Alternatively, using the (a5)² rule: a = 10, a(a+1) = 10·11 = 110 We have so 105² = 11000 + 25. So so 105² = 11025.

Compute the square root of 12.96 (a decimal).

  1. 3.4
  2. 3.5
  3. 3.6
  4. 3.7
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. 3.6

12.96 = 1296/100. Now 1296 = 36² (since 36 × 36 = 1296). **So √12.96 = 36/10 = 3.6. Check: 3.6 × 3.6 = 12.96 ✓**

What is the units digit of (1234)²?

  1. 6
  2. 9
  3. 4
  4. 16
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. 6

The units digit of n² depends only on the units digit of n. The units digit of 1234 is 4, and 4² = 16, whose units digit is 6. So (1234)² ends in 6. (Option D '16' confuses units digit with the full square of 4 — only the units digit '6' is requested.)
