Answer:
the answer is 3 please mark me as brainliest
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 3
Reason:
1875 ends in a 5, so it can be divided by 5
1875 ÷ 5 = 375 which also ends in a 5 so
375 ÷ 5 = 75
75 ÷ 5 = 15
15 ÷ 5 = 3.
So 1875 = 5 × 5 × 5 × 5 × 3 = (5 × 5) × (5 × 5)
= 25^2 × 3
So if you divide 1875 by 3 you get 25 squared, and 3 must be the smallest number as 1875 can't be divided exactly by 2.
