Ex 5.4, 5 Find the least number which must be added to each of the following numbers so as to get a perfect square. Also find the square root of the perfect square so obtained. (ii) 1750
Here,
Remainder = 69
Since remainder is not 0,
So, 1750 is not a perfect square
We need to find
the least number that must be added to 1750 so as to get a perfect square
Now,
Thus, we add 422 – 1750 to the number
∴ Number to added = 422 − 1750
= 1764 – 1750
= 14
Thus,
Perfect square = 1750 + 14
Let’s check
Thus, we add 14 to 1750 to get a perfect square.
Perfect square = 1764
& Square root of 1764 = 42
