Using (x + a) (x + b) = x2 + (a + b) x + ab, find
(i) 103 × 104 (ii) 5.1 × 5.2 (iii) 103 × 98 (iv) 9.7 × 9.8
(i) 103 × 104 = (100 + 3) (100 + 4)
= (100)2 + (3 + 4) (100) + (3) (4)
= 10000 + 700 + 12 = 10712
(ii) 5.1 × 5.2 = (5 + 0.1) (5 + 0.2)
= (5)2 + (0.1 + 0.2) (5) + (0.1) (0.2)
= 25 + 1.5 + 0.02 = 26.52
(iii) 103 × 98 = (100 + 3) (100 − 2)
= (100)2 + [3 + (− 2)] (100) + (3) (− 2)
= 10000 + 100 − 6
= 10094
(iv) 9.7 × 9.8 = (10 − 0.3) (10 − 0.2)
= (10)2 + [(− 0.3) + (− 0.2)] (10) + (− 0.3) (− 0.2)
= 100 + (− 0.5)10 + 0.06 = 100.06 − 5 = 95.06
