Find the smallest number
Prime factors of 243:
243=3×3×3×3×3
On grouping the factors of 243, we get
243={3×3×3}×3×3
Clearly, on grouping the factors in triplts of equal factors, we are left with two factors i.e., 3×3
Thus, we need to divide 243 by 3×3=9 to make the quotient a perfect cube.
Hence, the smallest required number is 9.
