    The greatest among \[\sqrt{\mathbf{11}}\mathbf{-}\sqrt{\mathbf{9}}\mathbf{,}\sqrt{\mathbf{5}}\mathbf{-}\sqrt{\mathbf{3}}\mathbf{,}\sqrt{\mathbf{7}}\mathbf{-}\sqrt{\mathbf{5}}\mathbf{,}\sqrt{\mathbf{13}}\mathbf{-}\sqrt{\mathbf{11}}\]is

    A)  \[\sqrt{11}-\sqrt{9}\]          

    B)  \[\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{3}\]     

    C)  \[\sqrt{7}-\sqrt{5}\]      

    D)  \[\sqrt{13}-\sqrt{11}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    (b): \[\sqrt{11}-\sqrt{9}\times \frac{\sqrt{11}+\sqrt{9}}{\sqrt{11}+\sqrt{9}}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{11}+\sqrt{9}};\]\[\sqrt{7}-\sqrt{5}\times \frac{\sqrt{7}+\sqrt{5}}{\sqrt{7}+\sqrt{5}}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{7}+\sqrt{5}}\] \[\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{3}\times \frac{\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{3}}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{3}};\]\[\sqrt{13}-\sqrt{11}\times \frac{\sqrt{13}+\sqrt{11}}{\sqrt{13}+\sqrt{11}}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{13}+\sqrt{11}}\] Hence, \[\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{3}\] is the greatest
