1397 x 1397 = ?
1951609
1981709
18362619
2031719
None of these
Answer: Option
Explanation:
1397 x 1397 = (1397)2
= (1400 - 3)2
= (1400)2 + (3)2 - (2 x 1400 x 3)
= 1960000 + 9 - 8400
= 1960009 - 8400
= 1951609.

Just multiply.

1397
1397

After multiplying for the second time just add and see the last 3digits are coming to 609 then its easy to ascertain or you can take the nearest whole number, whichever seems easy for you.
