Which one among $$\root 3 \of 6 ,\,\root 2 \of 5 $$ and $$\root 6 \of {12} $$ is the largest?
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
B
$$\eqalign{
& \root 3 \of 6 ,\,\root 2 \of 5 {\text{ and }}\root 6 \of {12} \cr
& {\text{Take LCM of }}\left( {3,\,2{\text{ and }}6} \right) = 6 \cr
& {6^{\frac{{1 \times 6}}{3}}},\,{5^{\frac{{1 \times 6}}{2}}},\,{12^{\frac{{1 \times 6}}{6}}} \cr
& 36,\,125{\text{ and }}12 \cr
& {\text{Clearly, }}\root 2 \of 5 {\text{ is the largest}}{\text{.}} \cr} $$
