Correct answer

Answer: (d)D.

13

Why this answer is correct

Concept used:

Calculation:

 √(√8100 + √6241) = ?

⇒ √(√8100 + √6241) = ?

⇒ √(90 + 79) = ?

⇒ √169 = ?

⇒ 13 = ?

∴ The value of ? is 13

15

Why this answer is correct

Concept used:

Follow BODMAS rule to solve this question, as per the order given below:

Step-1: Parts of an equation enclosed in 'Brackets' must be solved first, and in the bracket,

Step-2: Any mathematical 'Of' or 'Exponent' must be solved next,

Step-3: Next, the parts of the equation that contain 'Division' and 'Multiplication' are calculated,

Step-4: Last but not least, the parts of the equation that contain 'Addition' and 'Subtraction' should be calculated.

Now,

Calculations:

15 × 13 + 30 = ?2

⇒ ?2 = 225

⇒ ? = 15
