Question : Comprehension: Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.
“The two great empires of Lilliput and Blefuscu have been engaged in a most obstinate war for six-and-thirty moons past. It began upon the following occasion. It is allowed on all hands that the primitive way of breaking eggs, before we eat them was upon the larger end; but his present majesty’s grandfather, while he was a boy, going to eat an egg, and breaking it according to the ancient practice, happened to cut one of his fingers. Whereupon the emperor's father published an edict, commanding all his subjects, upon great penalties, to break the smaller end of their eggs. The people so highly resented this law, that our histories tell us, there have been six rebellions raised on that account, wherein one emperor lost his life, and another his crown. These civil commotions were constantly fomented by the monarchs of Blefuscu; and when they were quelled, the exiles always fled for refuge to that empire. It is computed that eleven thousand persons have at several times suffered death rather than submit to break their eggs at the smaller end. Many hundred large volumes have been published upon this controversy: but the books of the Big- Endians have been long forbidden, and the whole party rendered incapable by law of holding employment. During the course of these troubles, the emperors of Blefusca did frequently expostulated by their ambassadors, accusing us of making a schism in religion, by offending against a fundamental doctrine of our great prophet Lustrog. This, however, is thought to be a mere strain upon the text; for the words are these: ‘that all true believers break their eggs at the convenient end.’ And which is the convenient end, seems, in my humble opinion, to be left to every man’s conscience, or at least in the power of the chief magistrate to determine. Since then, the Big-Endian exiles have found so much credit in the emperor of Blefuscu’s court, and so much private assistance and encouragement from their party here at home, that a bloody war has been carried on between the two empires for six-and-thirty moons, with various success; during which time we have lost forty capital ships, and a much greater number of smaller vessels, together with thirty thousand of our best seamen and soldiers; and the damage received by the enemy is reckoned to be somewhat greater than ours. However, they have now equipped a numerous fleet, and are just preparing to make a descent upon us; and his imperial majesty, placing great confidence in your valour and strength, has commanded me to lay this account of his affairs before you.” Thus spoke the principal secretary. I desired the secretary to present my humble duty to the emperor and to let him know that I thought it would not become me, who was a foreigner, to interfere with parties, but I was ready, with the hazard of my life, to defend his person and state against all invaders.

Question : If $\left(x + \frac{1}{x}\right) = 2 \sqrt{2}$, what is the value of $\left(x^6 + \frac{1}{x^6}\right)$?
Option 1: 198
Option 2: 216
Option 3: 180
Option 4: 234
Correct Answer: 198
Solution : Given: $\left(x + \frac{1}{x}\right) = 2 \sqrt{2}$ Cubing both sides, we get, $(x + \frac{1}{x})^{3} = (2\sqrt{2})^{3}$ $⇒x^{3} + \frac{1}{x^3} + 3×x×\frac{1}{x}(x + \frac{1}{x}) = 16\sqrt{2}$ $⇒x^{3} + \frac{1}{x^3} + 3 \times 2\sqrt{2} = 16\sqrt{2}$ $⇒x^{3} + \frac{1}{x^3} = 10\sqrt{2}$ Now, squaring both sides, we
