If given in pairs in under root we take one out
so out of root it would be 30 * 30 = 900 which is Quantity A and B
so answer is C

A)The quantity in Column A is greater.
B)The quantity in Column B is greater.
C)The two quantities are equal.
D)The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.


This trick here is to remember that the solution of a square root can be positive or negative. Therefore, Quantity B could equal 900 (in which case the quantities are equal) or -900 (in which case A is greater). The relationship cannot be determined - D is the correct answer.
