Find \( 72\times68 \) using an identity.

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 4896

Write \(72\times68\) as \((70+2)(70-2)\). Using \((a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2\), we get \(70^2-2^2=4900-4=4896\). Hence, 4896 is correct. 4900 is only \(70^2\); subtracting \(2^2\) is necessary. Exam tip: use the difference-of-squares identity when two numbers are equally distant from a common number.
