Assertion : We know that
`9div3=3` and `9^(3)div3^(3)=27`
`8div2=4` and `8^(3)div2^(3)=64`
Reason : If a divides b, then `a^(3)` divides `b^(3)`.

A

If both asseration and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C

If assartion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion is false but reason is true.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the assertion and reason provided in the question, we will break it down step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding the Assertion The assertion states: 1. \( 9 \div 3 = 3 \) and \( 9^3 \div 3^3 = 27 \) 2. \( 8 \div 2 = 4 \) and \( 8^3 \div 2^3 = 64 \) **Verification:** - For \( 9 \div 3 = 3 \): - This is true as \( 9 \div 3 = 3 \). - For \( 9^3 \div 3^3 = 27 \): - Calculate \( 9^3 = 729 \) and \( 3^3 = 27 \). - Now, \( 729 \div 27 = 27 \), which is true. - For \( 8 \div 2 = 4 \): - This is also true as \( 8 \div 2 = 4 \). - For \( 8^3 \div 2^3 = 64 \): - Calculate \( 8^3 = 512 \) and \( 2^3 = 8 \). - Now, \( 512 \div 8 = 64 \), which is true. **Conclusion for Assertion:** Both parts of the assertion are true. ### Step 2: Understanding the Reason The reason states: "If \( a \) divides \( b \), then \( a^3 \) divides \( b^3 \)." **Verification:** - Let \( a \) divide \( b \). This means there exists an integer \( k \) such that: \[ b = a \times k \] - Now, cubing both sides: \[ b^3 = (a \times k)^3 = a^3 \times k^3 \] - This shows that \( b^3 \) is divisible by \( a^3 \). **Conclusion for Reason:** The reason is also true as it correctly explains the relationship between divisibility and cubing. ### Final Conclusion Both the assertion and the reason are true, and the reason correctly explains the assertion. ---
