Question:

The fourth proportional to 4, a and 16a is 81. What is the value of a?

4, a और 16a का चौथा समानुपाती 81 है। a का मान क्या है?

Options:

  • a) 13/2
  • b) 5/2
  • c) 9/2
  • d) 11/2
  • a) 13/2
  • b) 5/2
  • c) 9/2
  • d) 11/2

correct answer : c)

Explanation:

The fourth proportional to \(4\), \(a\), and \(16a\) is \(81\).
Therefore, \(\frac{4}{a} = \frac{16a}{81}\)
\(16a^2 = 324\)
\(a^2 = \frac{324}{16} = \frac{81}{4}\)
\(a = \frac{9}{2}\).

\(4\), \(a\), और \(16a\) का चौथा समानुपाती \(81\) है।
इसलिए, \(\frac{4}{a} = \frac{16a}{81}\)
\(16a^2 = 324\)
\(a^2 = \frac{324}{16} = \frac{81}{4}\)
\(a = \frac{9}{2}\).
