Answer:
The smallest number that should be divided 36864 is 9
Step-by-step explanation:
We can factorize the number 36864, and see the factors that can lead to the quotient that is a perfect cube,
36864 = 256 x 144 = 2⁸ x 12² = 2¹² x 9 = 2¹² x 3²
Immediately, we can see that if we divided the 36864, we will be left with 2¹²,
who's cube root is 16.
Hence, this way by simple factorization, we can find the smallest number (9) to divide, to get a perfect cube quotient.
