432×432+247×247−432×247432×432×432+247×247×247\frac{432\times432+247\times247-432\times247}{432\times432\times432+247\times247\times247}

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 1679\frac{1}{679}

Given that

432×432+247×247−432×247432×432×432+247×247×247\frac{432\times432+247\times247-432\times247}{432\times432\times432+247\times247\times247}

Formula used

a3 + b3 = (a + b)(a2 + b2 - ab)

⇒ 432×432+247×247−432×247(432+247)(432×432+247×247−432×247)\frac{432\times432+247\times247-432\times247}{(432+247)(432\times432+247\times247-432\times247)}

⇒ 1(432+247)\frac{1}{(432+247)}

⇒ 1679\frac{1}{679}
