Question

If $(33{)}^3$ is subtracted from the square of a number, the answer so obtained is 5272. What is the number?

• A. 223
• B. 213
• C. 203
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is C

203

Let the number be x.

From the question $x^2-(33{)}^3=5272$

Or $x^2-35937=5272$

Or $x^2=35937+5272=41209$

$\therefore \sqrt{41209}=203$
