I was expecting a blitzing fast talk. He said he'll answer ALL questions in 60 sec!

If you put the page below the image of you calculating, it will balance the image

@kozokosa9289

actually, you need to look at the last 2 digits, not the last one specifically, you have squares that end with 44, 84, 24 and more, which you subconcsiously took into account but I didn't see you mention what happens when you bump the digit of tens(the 2 in 23, 24, 25, 26...)

This is the first question from a western University admission test that actually made me think for a second

@mhoeltken

I am no english native, but should the into not be "Answering each Oxford question in one miunte" in contrast to "answering all questions in one minute"?

@alexriedel3067

I think I almost got it.
But wyh not a) ?
The last digit, 9, is 3² and thus a square.
And If it is the last "two" digits how would I know?
OR would it hafe to be -09 for it to work?

@deathbyentropy4785

196 is 14 squared, but ends on 96 hence it doestn follow your rule. Or did I missunderstand the approach?

@simonpfehr

I don't see how that proofs (d) can't be square. The list shows that the last digit can be a 5, but you argued by saying 35 is not on the list

It is true that all squares that end in 5 actually end in 25 and I think I found an easy way to show it

We know for a product to end in 5 one of it's factors must end in 5 so we can write the square as:

(10n + 5)²
Expanded: 100n² + 100n + 25

This proofs (d) can't be a square

@kwilson5832

I don't think the explanation was helpful.
For a) I would say '1 more than 99,999,999' is 100,000,000'. '100,000,000 is the square of 10,000, so 9,999,999 (which is only 1 less) can't be a square'.
b) ends in 3, but no square numbers end in 3 (as stated on the video)
d) ends with 35, but the only square numbers that end in '5' end in '25'.
e) ends with three zeroes, but any square number ending in '0' must end with an even number of zeroes.

I just selected C bcz,of 225,which 15^2😅

Linus tech tips but for mathematics

@jonp3674

"D ends in a 35, we don't have a 35, so it can't be that one", that is false reasoning.

There's plenty of squares, like 121, 144, 169, 196 etc which have 2 last digits which are different from the squares of the numbers 0 to 10.

Admission application rejected.

@cariboubearmalachy1174

Why cant a square end in 35?

Dire hairstyle, dude.  It's 2024, not 2004.

@rydmerlin

Do you have to mention that you had no involvement in the test itself?

@terranceparsons5185

I just went straight to c), because its always c)

@Bid_Droh_Hi

I'm sorry for this comment, but are you emo turned mathematics tutor or methamatics turned mathematics tutor😂😂.. sorry brother... Love from India..
