Question 89

The descending order of the numbers $$5\sqrt{6}, 10\sqrt{3},Β 7\sqrt{5},Β 6\sqrt{7}$$ is

This question can be resolved by knowing approximate values of the square roots of 3, 5, 7.Β 
Sqrt(3) = 1.73 approx., sqrt(5) = 2.23 approx., sqrt(7) = 2.6 approx.

Now, we can see thatΒ $$10\sqrt{\ 3}$$ will be larger than 17 whileΒ $$7\sqrt{\ 5}$$ would be a little over 15.Β 
While in contrast,Β $$5\sqrt{\ 6}$$ would not even be 15.Β 
Also,Β $$6\sqrt{\ 7}$$ would be greater than 15.Β 

Hence, we can say thatΒ $$10\sqrt{\ 3}$$ is the largest of them all andΒ $$5\sqrt{\ 6}$$ would be the smallest.Β 
$$6\sqrt{\ 7}\ >\ 7\sqrt{\ 5}\ $$.Β 
Hence, answer is B
