a squary problem

[rudresh]

consider the no.74. that is the square of the no. in its tenth place. what is the cube of the no. in the ones place. find the difference triplet

consider 74

What is the square of the [digit] in its tens' place?

Is this your question?

If so, you first need to know the meaning of "tens' place".

Check this lesson, and then come back and tell us what digit is in the tens' place.

Then we may continue.

By the way, what grade are you in?

consider the no.74. that is the square of the no. in its tenth place.

If you "what is the square of the number in it tenths place" ('digit' would have been better than 'no.') then that digit is 7 and its square is 49.

what is the cube of the no. in the ones place.

The digit in the one's place is 4 and its cube is 64.

find the difference triplet

I don't know what this is.

If you "what is the square of the number in it tenths place"

then that digit is 7 and its square is 49.

I'm thinking that the tenths' place would contain a zero digit because tenths is the decimal position immediately to the right of the decimal point.

Moving to the left of the decimal point, we have (in order) ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten-thousands, et cetera.

(Moving to the right of the decimal point, we have tenths, hundredths, thousandths, ten-thousandths, et cetera.)

Check out the link, in my first reply. :cool:


EGs:

74 = 7(10) + 4(1)

74.5 = 7(10) + 4(1) + 5(1/10)
