Question
Two-third of two-fifth of three-fourth of a number is 36. What is the square root of four-fifth of that number?
- 9
- 12
- 14
- 16
Hint:
We are given that 2/3 * 2/5 * 3/4 * x = 36. We will simplify the given expression and find the value of x. Then we will find the value of √(4/5 * x)
The correct answer is: 12
GIVEN-
2/3 of 2/5 of 3/4 of a number = 36
TO FIND-
√(4/5 of the number)
SOLUTION-
Let the given number be x.
∴ 2/3 * 2/5 * 3/4 * x = 36
∴ (2 * 2 * 3) / (3 * 5 * 4) * x = 36
∴ 12/60 * x = 36
∴ 1/5 * x = 36
∴ x = 36 * 5 .................................... (Multiplying both sides by 5)
∴ x = 180 ........................................ (Equation i)
We need to find-
√(4/5 * x)
= √(4/5 * 180) ....................... (From Equation i)
= √(4/5 * 180)
= √144
= 12
FINAL ANSWER-
Option 'a' i.e. '12' is the correct answer to the given question.

Alternatively, the question can be solved by multiply numbers in each of the options given and then check whether the resultant number is a perfect square or not-
a. 5
1008 * 5 = 5040
We know that 5040 is not a perfect square because √5040 = 12√35.
b. 2
1008 * 2 = 2016
We know that 2016 is not a perfect square because √2016 = 12√14.
c. 7
1008 * 7 = 7056
We know that 7056 is a perfect square because √7056 = 84.
d. 8
1008 * 8 = 8064
We know that 8064 is not a perfect square because √8064 = 24√14.
