(2.39)²–(1.61)² so it is in the form of a²–b² so it will be( a+b)(a-b) so it will be (2.39+1.61)(2.39-1.61) so by solving we get
2.39 +1.61 =4.00 and 2.39-1.61= 0.78.

Now as in down i.e denomination also 2.39-1.61 is given which is 0.78.
So, we can cut the numerator and denominator i.e
(4.00×0.78)/0.78 = 4 if we cut the numerator 0.78 and denominator 0.78.
So here comes the answer. 4.

Here (A+B) (A-B) / (A-B).

Here (A-B) from the numerator and denominator are canceled then (A+B) is the remainder.
So (2. 39+1. 61) =4.

See what we have to do is,

(a+b)x(a-b)/(a-b).

(2.39+1.61)x(2.39-1.61) divided by/(2.39-1.61).

Solving them by opening the brackets we get,
4x0.78/0.78.
Now by solving it we get a figure =3.12 divided by/0.78.
Finally, we get = 4 as our answer.
