What is the <strong>LEAST</strong> value of n if 194480+n=m^4 where m and n are natural numbers?

  1. A. 1
  2. B. 2
  3. C. 3
  4. D. 4

Correct Answer: A. 1

Explanation

We need the smallest fourth power greater than 194480. Since 20^4 = 160000 and 21^4 = 194481, the smallest value is 194481. Thus, 194480 + n = 194481 \implies n=1.
