Question

A perfect square number lies between 1700 and 1800 and is divisible by 9. Find that number and its square root.

A.

1724, 28

B.

1744, 38

C.

1764, 42

D.

1798, 48

Correct option is C

Given:
The number is a perfect square.
It lies between 1700 and 1800.
It is divisible by 9.
Formula Used:
A number is divisible by 9 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 9.
Solution:
Find the squares of numbers that fall near the 1700 to 1800 range.
40240^2​ = 1600
41241^2 ​= 1681
42242^2​ = 1764
43243^2​ = 1849
The only perfect square strictly between 1700 and 1800 is 1764.
Check divisibility by 9 for 1764.
Sum of digits = 1 + 7 + 6 + 4 = 18
Since 18 is divisible by 9, 1764 is divisible by 9.
The number is 1764 and its square root is 42.
Final Answer
So the correct answer is (c)
