Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(26\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\left(3^{1 / 4}+5^{1 / 8}\right)^{60}\) \({ }^{60} C _{ r }\left(3^{1 / 4}\right)^{60- r } \cdot\left(5^{1 / 8}\right)^{ r }\) \({ }^{60} C _{ r }(3)^{\frac{60- r }{4}} .5^{\frac{ r }{8}}\) For rational terms. \(\frac{r}{8}=k ; \quad 0 \leq r \leq 60\) \(0 \leq 8 k \leq 60\)…
