If $$\sqrt {0.03 \times 0.3a} $$   = $${\text{0}}{\text{.3}} \times {\text{0}}{\text{.3}} \times \sqrt b {\text{,}}$$    value of $$\frac{a}{b}\,{\text{is?}}$$

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option C
$$\eqalign{ & \sqrt {0.03 \times 0.3a} = {\text{0}}{\text{.3}} \times {\text{0}}{\text{.3}} \times \sqrt b \cr & {\text{Squaring both sides}} \cr & \Rightarrow {\text{0}}{\text{.03}} \times {\text{0}}{\text{.3a}} = {\left( {0.3} \right)^2} \times {\left( {0.3} \right)^2} \times b \cr & \Rightarrow \frac{3}{{100}} \times \frac{3}{{10}}a = \frac{9}{{100}} \times \frac{9}{{100}} \times b \cr & \Rightarrow 9a = \frac{{81}}{{10}}b \cr & \Rightarrow 90a = 81b \cr & \Rightarrow 10a = 9b \cr & \Rightarrow \frac{a}{b} = \frac{9}{{10}} \cr & \Rightarrow \frac{a}{b} = 0.9 \cr} $$
