Answer:
3136
Step-by-step explanation:
By prime factorization, we get
9408 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 7 * 7
Here 2 and 7 are in pairs, But 3 needs a pair.Thus,3 can become pair after dividing 9408 with 3.
So, 9408 will become a perfect square after dividing it by 3.
Therefore the smallest number is 3.
9408/3 = 3136
