Find the prime factorisation of the following numbers:
1003493+103613

Open in App
Solution

Let us consider 4910+61=100, therefore, the given problem can be rewritten as:

[(49)+(10)+(61)]3(49)3(10)3(61)3

We know the identity: (a+b+c)3a3b3c3=3(a+b)(b+c)(c+a)

Using the above identity taking a=49, b=10 and c=61, the equation
[(49)+(10)+(61)]3(49)3(10)3(61)3 can be factorised as follows:

[(49)+(10)+(61)]3(49)3(10)3(61)3=3(4910)(10+61)(61+49)=3×39×51×110
=2×(3×3×3)×5×11×13×17=2×33×5×11×13×17

Hence, 1003493+103613=2×33×5×11×13×17
