Find the value of \(999 \frac{995}{999} \times 999\).

  • A.998996
  • B.999896
  • C.999000
  • D.998999

Answer: A

The expression can be rewritten as \((999 + \frac{995}{999}) \times 999\).

Using the distributive property: \(999 \times 999 + \frac{995}{999} \times 999\)

= \(999^2 + 995\)

= \((1000 - 1)^2 + 995\)

= \((1000000 - 2000 + 1) + 995\)

= 998001 + 995 = 998996.
