    Visiting the historical monuments, a tourist asked, 'How old' is this monument? The guide replied 'The monument is over fifty years old. Its exact age was a square number two years age and will be a cube number two years hence.' What is the age of the monument?

    A) 343                              

    B) 216

    C) 64                                

    D) 123

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Take exact age as 6 years. \[66-2\text{ }=64,\] it is \[{{8}^{2}}\] but not cube of any number. Then, take 83, 102 as exact date. But these figures do not satisfy the two criteria. Then, take 123 as exact date. It will satisfy the two criteria.
