To do: We have to find the smallest number by which the given numbers must be divided so that the quotient is a perfect cube. Solution: (i) Prime factorisation of $675=3\times3\times3\times5\times5$ Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we find that $5\times5$ is not a complete triplet. Therefore, dividing $675$ by $5\times5=25$, we get, $675\div25=3\times3\times3\times5\times5\div25$ $=3\times3\times3$ Hence, the smallest number by which the given number must be divided so that the quotient is a perfect cube is 25. (ii) Prime factorisation of $8640=2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times3\times3\times3\times5$ Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we find that $5$ is not a complete triplet. Therefore, dividing $8640$ by $5$, we get, $8640\div5=2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times3\times3\times3\times5\div5$ $=2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times3\times3\times3$ Hence, the smallest number by which the given number must be divided so that the quotient is a perfect cube is 5. (iii) Prime factorisation of $1600=2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times5\times5$ Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we find that $5\times5$ is not a complete triplet. Therefore, dividing $1600$ by $5\times5=25$, we get, $1600\div25=2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times5\times5\div25$ $=2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2$ Hence, the smallest number by which the given number must be divided so that the quotient is a perfect cube is 25. (iv) Prime factorisation of $8788=2\times2\times13\times13\times13$ Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we find that $2\times2$ is not a complete triplet. Therefore, dividing $8788$ by $2\times2=4$, we get, $8788\div4=2\times2\times13\times13\times13\div4$ $=13\times13\times13$ Hence, the smallest number by which the given number must be divided so that the quotient is a perfect cube is 4. (v) Prime factorisation of $7803=3\times3\times3\times17\times17$ Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we find that $17\times17$ is not a complete triplet. Therefore, dividing $7803$ by $17\times17=289$, we get, $7803\div289=3\times3\times3\times17\times17\div289$ $=3\times3\times3$ Hence, the smallest number by which the given number must be divided so that the quotient is a perfect cube is 289. (vi) Prime factorisation of $107811=3\times3\times3\times3\times11\times11\times11$ Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we find that $3$ is not a complete triplet. Therefore, dividing $107811$ by $3$, we get, $107811\div3=3\times3\times3\times3\times11\times11\times11\div3$ $=3\times3\times3\times11\times11\times11$ Hence, the smallest number by which the given number must be divided so that the quotient is a perfect cube is 3. (vii) Prime factorisation of $35721=3\times3\times3\times3\times3\times3\times7\times7$ Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we find that $7\times7$ is not a complete triplet. Therefore, dividing $35721$ by $7\times7=49$, we get, $35721\div49=3\times3\times3\times3\times3\times3\times7\times7\div49$ $=3\times3\times3\times3\times3\times3$ Hence, the smallest number by which the given number must be divided so that the quotient is a perfect cube is 49. (viii) Prime factorisation of $243000=2\times2\times2\times3\times3\times3\times3\times3\times5\times5\times5$ Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we find that $3\times3$ is not a complete triplet. Therefore, dividing $243000$ by $3\times3=9$, we get, $243000\div9=2\times2\times2\times3\times3\times3\times3\times3\times5\times5\times5\div9$ $=2\times2\times2\times3\times3\times3\times5\times5\times5$ Hence, the smallest number by which the given number must be divided so that the quotient is a perfect cube is 9.
