    Let the numbers be x and y
    where x > y.
    According to the question,
    x + y = 37
    and
    x2 − y2 = 185
    ⇒  (x + y) (x – y) = 185
    ⇒  37 (x – y) = 185

    ⇒  x – y =
    185
    = 5
    37

    Correct Option: C

    Let the numbers be x and y
    where x > y.
    According to the question,
    x + y = 37
    and
    x2 − y2 = 185
    ⇒  (x + y) (x – y) = 185
    ⇒  37 (x – y) = 185

    ⇒  x – y =
    185
    = 5

    ∴  20184 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 29 × 29
    = 22 × 292 × 2 × 3
    ∴  For making it a perfect square,
    20184 should be multiplied by 2 × 3 = 6
    20184 × 6 = 121104;
    121104 = 348

    Correct Option: D


    ∴  20184 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 29 × 29
    = 22 × 292 × 2 × 3

    5 = 2. 24
    3 = 1. 73
    6 = 2.45
    2 = 1.41
    ∴  √5 + √3 = 2.24 + 1.73 = 3.97
    6 + √2 = 2.45 + 1.41 = 3.86
    Clearly, 3.97 > 3.86

    Correct Option: A

    5 = 2. 24
    3 = 1. 73
    6 = 2.45
    2 = 1.41
    ∴  √5 + √3 = 2.24 + 1.73 = 3.97
    6 + √2 = 2.45 + 1.41 = 3.86
    Clearly, 3.97 > 3.86
