Question -

Using (x + a) (x + b) = x2 + (a + b)x + ab, find
(i) 103 × 104
(ii) 5.1 × 5.2
(iii) 103 × 98
(iv) 9.7 × 9.8



Answer -

(i) 103 × 104 = (100 + 3)(100 + 4) = (100)2 + (3 + 4) (100) + 3 × 4 = 10000 + 700 + 12 = 10712
(ii) 5.1 × 5.2 = (5 + 0.1) (5 + 0.2) = (5)
2 +(0.1 + 0.2) (5) + 0.1 × 0.2 = 25 + 1.5 + 0.02 = 26.5 + 0.02 = 26.52
(iii) 103 × 98 = (100 + 3) (100 – 2) = (100)
2 +(3 – 2) (100) + 3 × (-2) = 10000 + 100 – 6 = 10100 – 6 = 10094
(iv) 9.7 × 9.8 = (10 – 0.3) (10 – 0.2) = (10)
2 –(0.3 + 0.2) (10) + (-0.3) (-0.2) = 100 – 5 + 0.06 = 95 + 0.06 = 95.06
