397 x 397 + 104 x 104 + 2 x 397 x 104 = ?
250001
251001
260101
261001
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Given Exp. = (397)2 + (104)2 + 2 x 397 x 104
= (397 + 104)2
= (501)2 = (500 + 1)2
= (5002) + (1)2 + (2 x 500 x 1)
= 250000 + 1 + 1000
= 251001

397*397 + 104*104 + 2*397*104.
1*1 + 5*5 + 2*1*5,
1+7+1,
9.

251001 = 9.

Apply Sum of a digit of multiplication = sum of digit of product.

We can do this through the digital sum verification instead of calculating (501)^2.

501=5+0+1 = 6 &6^2=36.
Now 3 + 6 = 9
Hence digital sum is 9.
By optional verification option with digital sum.
9is the answer.
In the options 251001=2+5+1+0+0+1 = 9.
Hence that's the answer.

It can also done through (a+b)^2 formula?

When 2x500 = 1000, then 2x1 must also be considered.
