A)The quantity in Column A is greater.
B)The quantity in Column B is greater.
C)The two quantities are equal.
D)The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.
Here;
From the question we can assume QTY A > QTY B
let us assume 1.9 = 2 and 1.999 = 2
Now QTY A = \(2^3 = 8\)
and QTY B = \(2^2 =4\)
Moreover 1.999 will always be less than 2 , similarly 1.9 will always be less than 2
But cube root > square root.
If the question tells us compare between \((1.9)^2\) and \((1.999)^2\) then in this case \((1.999)^2 > (1.9)^2\). This is because the roots of both the QTY are same and 1.999 is more close to 2 than 1.9
