Question : What is the value of $\frac{4x^2+9y^2+12xy}{144}$?
Option 1: $(\frac{x}{3} + \frac{y}{4})^2$
Option 2: $(\frac{x}{3} + y)^2$
Option 3: $(\frac{x}{4} + \frac{y}{6})^2$
Option 4: $(\frac{x}{6} + \frac{y}{4})^2$
Correct Answer: $(\frac{x}{6} + \frac{y}{4})^2$
Solution : $\frac{4x^2+9y^2+12xy}{144}$ = $\frac{x^2}{36} +\frac{y^2}{16}+\frac{xy}{12}$ = $\frac{x^2}{36} +\frac{y^2}{16}+2×\frac{x}{6}×\frac{y}{4}$ = $(\frac{x}{6} + \frac{y}{4})^2$ Hence, the correct answer is $(\frac{x}{6} + \frac{y}{4})^2$.
