  1. The value of (0.96)3 - (0.1)3/ [(0.96)2 + (0.096) + 0.01] is ?
    1. 0.86
    2. 1.06
    3. 0.95
    4. 0.97
Correct Option: A

(0.96)3 - (0.1)3/ [(0.96)3 + 0.096 + 0.01]
= (0.96)3 - (0.1)3 = (0.96 - 0.1) [(0.96)2 + 0.96 x 0.1 + (0.1)2]
[∵ a3 - b3 = (a - b) (a2 + ab + b2)]
= (0.96 - 0.1) [(0.96)2 + 0.096 + 0.01]/(0.96)2 + 0.096 + 0.01
= 0.96 - 0.1 = 0.86
