Question

what is the smallest number that must divide each of the following number to make it a perfect square numbers are 370040 and 11 576 615

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the smallest number that you can multiply by 540 to make a

square number?

I know the answer is 15, which I found by trial and error.  That is, I

worked out the prime factors and they are 2^2, 3^2, and 5.  Juggling

these brings me to 90 x 90 = 8100, which is 540 x 15.

What I cannot work out for numbers other than 540 is the correct

method of juggling.  My working was random and I'd love to be able to

apply this to other numbers.
