    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    Given expression

    X= [(2.75)3 - (2.25)3]/ [(2.75)2+ 2.75 * 2.25 + (2.25)2]
    We have, a3 - b3 = (a-b) (a2 + ab + b2)

    Therefore, x = [(2.75 - 2.25) {(2.75)2 + 2.75*2.25 + (2.25)2}]/ [(2.75)2 + 2.75 *2.25 + (2.25)2]
    Or, x = 2.75 - 2.25 = 0.50
