By which smallest number must 5400 be multiplied to make it a perfect Cube ?
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Correct option is
C
5
Prime factorising 5400, we get,
5400=3×3×3×5×5×2×2×2
=2
3
×3
3
×5
2
.
We know, a perfect cube has multiples of 3 as powers of prime factors.
Here, number of 2's is 3, number of 3's is 3 and number of 5's is 2.
So we need to multiply another 5 to the factorization to make 5400 a perfect cube.
Hence, the smallest number by which 5400 must be multiplied to obtain a perfect cube is 5.
Therefore, option C is correct.

To find :-
- By which smallest number must 5400 be multiplied to make it a perfect Cube ?
Solution :-
First we find the factors of 5400 by division method.
See the attachment.
➯ 5400 =2×2×2×5×5×3×3×3
➠ 5400 = 2³ × 3³ × 5²
Here, 5 occurs only two times
When 5 is multiplied to 5400, it will become a perfect cube.
➠ 27000=2³ × 3³ × 5³
Now, the factorization of 27000 contains product of cubes of all its factors.
∴The required smallest number is 5.
