Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:
(i) 588 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 7 × 7
We know that
588/2 = 294/2 = 147/3 = 49/7 = 7/7 = 1
By pairing the same kind of factors, one factor 3 is left unpaired.
So to make it a pair we must multiply it by 3
Required least number = 3
Square root of 588 × 3 = 1764
Here
2 × 3 × 7 = 42
(ii) 720 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5
We know that
720/2 = 360/2 = 180/2 = 90/2 = 45/3 = 15/3 = 5/5 = 1
By pairing the same kind of factors, one factor 5 is left unpaired.
So to make it a pair we must multiply it by 5
Required least number = 5
Square root of 720 × 5 = 3600
Here
2 × 2 × 3 × 5 = 60
(iii) 2178 = 2 × 3 × 3 × 11 × 11
We know that
2178/2 = 1089/3 = 363/3 = 121/11 = 11/11 = 1
By pairing the same kind of factors, one factor 2 is left unpaired.
So to make it a pair we must multiply it by 2
Required least number = 2
Square root of 2178 × 2 = 4356
Here
2 × 3 × 11 = 66
(iv) 3042 = 2 × 3 × 3 × 13 × 13
We know that
3042/2 = 1521/3 = 507/3 = 169/13 = 13/13 = 1
By pairing the same kind of factors, one factor 2 is left unpaired
So to make it a pair we must multiply it by 2
Required least number = 2
Square root of 3042 × 2 = 6084
Here
2 × 3 × 13 = 78
(v) 6300 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5 × 7
We know that
6300/2 = 3150/2 = 1575/3 = 525/3 = 175/5 = 35/5 = 7/7 = 1
By pairing the same kind of factors, one factor 7 is left unpaired
So to make it a pair we must multiply it by 7
Required least number = 7
Square root of 6300 × 7 = 44100
Here
2 × 3 × 5 × 7 = 210
