Question

The least number by which 60500 must be divided to make the result a perfect square:​

Answer 1

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 60500/2 = 30250

$\sqrt{30250}$

60500/3 = 20166.6

60500/4 = 15125

60500/5 = 12100

$\sqrt{12100}$ = 110

Answer 2

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

As, 60500=2×2×5×5×5×11×11

Here, 2, 5 and 11 are in a pair and 5 remains without a pair.

Hence, 60500 must be divided by 5 to make it a perfect square.
