The correct Answer is:
To simplify the expression \(\frac{(361)^3 + (139)^3}{(361)^2 - (361 \times 139) + (139)^2}\), we can use the identity for the sum of cubes and the difference of squares. ### Step 1: Identify \(a\) and \(b\) Let: - \(a = 361\) - \(b = 139\) ### Step 2: Apply the sum of cubes identity The identity for the sum of cubes states that: \[ a^3 + b^3 = (a + b)(a^2 - ab + b^2) \] Applying this identity, we have: \[ (361)^3 + (139)^3 = (361 + 139)((361)^2 - (361)(139) + (139)^2) \] ### Step 3: Substitute into the expression Now substituting back into the original expression: \[ \frac{(361)^3 + (139)^3}{(361)^2 - (361 \times 139) + (139)^2} = \frac{(361 + 139)((361)^2 - (361)(139) + (139)^2)}{(361)^2 - (361 \times 139) + (139)^2} \] ### Step 4: Cancel the common terms The numerator and denominator have a common factor of \((361)^2 - (361)(139) + (139)^2\), so we can cancel these terms: \[ = 361 + 139 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the final result Now, we just need to add \(361\) and \(139\): \[ 361 + 139 = 500 \] Thus, the simplified expression is: \[ \boxed{500} \]
