By What numbers should each of the following be divided to get a perfect square in each case? Also, find the number whose square is the new number. (i) 16562 (ii) 3698 (iii) 5103 (iv) 3174 (v) 1575

Answer»

(i) 16562 

16562 = (7 × 7) × (13 × 13) × 2 

\(\frac{16562}{2}\)= (7 × 7) × (13 × 13) 

\(\frac{16562}{2}\)= (7 × 13) × (7 × 13) = 91 × 91 

= 912 

Therefore, the resultant is the square of 91.

ii) 3698 

3698 = 2 × (43 × 43) 

\(\frac{3698}{2}\)= 43 × 43 

= 432 

Therefore, the numbers must be divided by 2 and resultant is square of 43.

(iii) 5103 

5103 = (3 × 3) × (3 × 3) × (3 × 3) × 7 

\(\frac{5103}{7}\)= (3 × 3 × 3) × (3 × 3 × 3) 

= 27 × 27 

= 272 

Therefore, the number must be divided by 7 and resultant is square of 27.

(iv) 3174 

3174 = 2 × 3 × (23 × 23) 

\(\frac{3174}{6}\)= 23 × 23 

= 232 

Therefore, the number must be divided by 6 and the resultant is square of 23.

(v) 1575

1575 = 3 × 3 × 5 × 5 × 7

\(\frac{1575}{7}\) = 3 × 3 × 5 × 5

= 15 × 15 

= 152 

Therefore, the number must be divided by 7 and the resultant is square of 15.
