Question

Match the numbers with the number to be multiplied with to convert them into a perfect cube.

• A. 3
• B. 4
• C. 2
• D. 5

Answer 1

By prime factorising the given numbers we get,
243 = $3\times 3\times 3\times 3\times 3$.
So to make it a perfect cube we have to multiply it with 3.

$16=4\times 4$.
So to make it a perfect cube we have to multiply it with 4.

$500=2\times 2\times 5\times 5\times 5$.
So to make it a perfect cube we have to multiply it with 2.

$675=3\times 3\times 3\times 5\times 5$.
So to make it a perfect cube we have to multiply it with 5.
