Question 1 :
Find the smallest number by which each of the following numbers must be multiplied to obtain a perfect cube.
(i) 243
(ii) 256
(iii) 72
(iv) 675
Formulae used :

Distance Formula to find distance between two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is :                     D = √[(x2 – x1)2 + (y2 – y1)2 ]

Solution :
  (i) We have 243 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3
                  
      The prime factor 3 is not a group of three.
      ∴ 243 is not a perfect cube.
       Now, [243] × 3 = [3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3] × 3
            or 729 =3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3
        Now, 729 becomes a perfect cube.
        Thus, the smallest required number to multiply 243 to make it a perfect cube is 3.
