Solution

The given number is 1352. Breaking the number as product of prime factors.
1352=2×2×13×13×2=22×132×2
To get a perfect square, the prime numbers should occur even number of times.
Here, 2 occurs three times (odd number of times).
Thus, we have to multiply 1352 by 2 to get a perfect square.
