1188=2*2*3*3*3*11
Therefore it is clearly not a perfect cube.
Hence, it should be divided by 44 to make it a
perfect cube.

1188 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 11
The primes 2 and 11 do not appear in groups of three. So, 1188 is not a perfect cube. In the factorisation of 1188 the prime 2 appears only two times and the prime 11 appears once.
So, if we divide 1188 by 2 × 2 × 11 = 44, then the prime factorisation of the quotient will not contain 2 and 11.
Hence the smallest natural number by which 1188 should be divided to make it a perfect cube is 44.
And the resulting perfect cube is 1188 ÷ 44 = 27 (=33 ).
