√56 + √56 + √56 + .... ) ÷ 22 =?

Correct Answer: 2

Explanation:

Here, Let us Assume ,
p = √56 + √56 + 56 + ...........
p = √56 + p
Square on both side and solve the above equation.
p2= 56 + p
p2 - p= 56
p(p - 1 ) = 56
p(p - 1 ) = 8 x 7
⇒ Either p = 8 or p - 1 = 7
⇒ So p = 8;
Now given equation in question is
56 + √56 + 56 + .... ) ÷ 22 = ?
p ÷ 22 = ?
Put the value of p
8 ÷ 22 = ?
8 ÷ 4 = ?
? = 2;
