CUBE AND CUBE ROOTS (Chapter-7) SOLUTION
EXERCISE 7.1
1. Which of the following numbers are not perfect cubes?
(i) 216 (ii) 128 (iii) 1000 (iv) 100 (v) 46656
Solution - In the prime factorisation of any number, if each factor appears three times, then, the number is a perfect cube.
(i) 216By prime factorisation, 216 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3
Each factor appears 3 times. 216 = 2³ × 3³ = (2 × 3)³ = 6³
6³ = 216 is a perfect cube.
(ii) 128
By prime factorisation, 128 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
Each factor not appears 3 times.
So, 100 is Not a perfect cube.
(iii) 1000By prime factorisation, 1000 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 5 × 5 × 5
Each factor appears 3 times. 1000 = 2³ × 5³ = (2 × 5)³ = 10³
10³ = 1000 is a perfect cube.
(iv) 100By prime factorisation, 100 = 2 × 2 × 5 × 5
Each factor not appears 3 times.
So, 100 is Not a perfect cube.(v) 46656By prime factorisation, 46656 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3
Each factor appears 3 times. 46656 = 2³ × 2³ × 3³ × 3³ = (2 × 2³ × 3³ × 3)³ = 36³
36³ = 46656 is a perfect cube.
2. 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 (v) 100
Solution-
(i) 243
By prime factorisation, 243 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3
The prime factor 3 does not appear in a group of three.
Therefore,
243 is not a perfect cube.
To make its a cube, we need one more 3.
In that case 243 × 3 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 = 729 which is a perfect cube.
Hence the smallest natural number by which 243 should be multiplied to make a perfect cube is 3.
(ii) 256
By prime factorisation, 256 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
The prime factor 2 does not appear in a group of three.
Therefore,
256 is not a perfect cube.
To make its a cube, we need one more 2.
In that case 256 × 2 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 512 which is a perfect cube.
Hence the smallest natural number by which 256 should be multiplied to make a perfect cube is 2.
(iii) 72
By prime factorisation, 72 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3
The prime factor 3 does not appear in a group of three.
Therefore,
72 is not a perfect cube.
To make its a cube, we need one more 3.
In that case 72 × 3 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 = 216 which is a perfect cube.
Hence the smallest natural number by which 72 should be multiplied to make a perfect cube is 3.
(iv) 675
By prime factorisation, 675 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5
The prime factor 5 does not appear in a group of three.
Therefore,
675 is not a perfect cube.
To make its a cube, we need one more 5.
In that case 675 × 5 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5 × 5 = 2744 which is a perfect cube.
Hence the smallest natural number by which 675 should be multiplied to make a perfect cube is 5.
(v) 100
By prime factorisation, 100 = 2 × 2 × 5 × 5
The prime factor 2 and 5 does not appear in a group of three.
Therefore,
100 is not a perfect cube.
To make its a cube, we need one more 2 and 5 i.e. 10.
In that case 100 × 10 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 5 × 5 × 5 = 1000 which is a perfect cube.
Hence the smallest natural number by which 100 should be multiplied to make a perfect cube is 2 and 5.
3. Find the smallest number by which each of the following numbers must be divided to obtain a perfect cube.
(i) 81 (ii) 128 (iii) 135 (iv) 192 (v) 704
Solution-
(i) 81
By prime factorisation, 81 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3
The prime factor 3 does not appear in a group of three.
So, 81 is not a perfect cube.
In the factorisation 3 appears only one time.
If we divide the number by 3, then the prime factorisation of the quotient will not contain 3.
So, 81 ÷ 3 = 3 × 3 × 3
Hence the smallest number by which 81 should be divided to make it a perfect cube is 3.
The perfect cube in that case is = 27.
(ii) 128
By prime factorisation, 128 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
The prime factor 2 does not appear in a group of three.
So, 128 is not a perfect cube.
In the factorisation 2 appears only one time.
If we divide the number by 2, then the prime factorisation of the quotient will not contain 2.
So, 128 ÷ 2 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
Hence the smallest number by which 128 should be divided to make it a perfect cube is 2.
The perfect cube in that case is = 64.
(iii) 135
By prime factorisation, 135 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 5
The prime factor 5 does not appear in a group of three.
So, 135 is not a perfect cube.
In the factorisation 5 appears only one time.
If we divide the number by 5, then the prime factorisation of the quotient will not contain 5.
So, 135 ÷ 5 = 3 × 3 × 3
Hence the smallest number by which 135 should be divided to make it a perfect cube is 5.
The perfect cube in that case is = 27.
(iv) 192
By prime factorisation, 192 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3
The prime factor 3 does not appear in a group of three.
So, 192 is not a perfect cube.
In the factorisation 3 appears only one time.
If we divide the number by 3, then the prime factorisation of the quotient will not contain 3.
So, 192 ÷ 3 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
Hence the smallest number by which 192 should be divided to make it a perfect cube is 3.
The perfect cube in that case is = 64.
(v) 704
By prime factorisation, 704 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 11
The prime factor 11 does not appear in a group of three.
So, 704 is not a perfect cube.
In the factorisation 11 appears only one time.
If we divide the number by 11, then the prime factorisation of the quotient will not contain 11.
So, 704 ÷ 11 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
Hence the smallest number by which 704 should be divided to make it a perfect cube is 11.
The perfect cube in that case is = 64.
4. Parikshit makes a Cuboid of plasticine of sides 5 cm, 2 cm, 5 cm. How many such Cuboids will he need to form a Cube?
Solution- According to the question,
The sides of the Cuboid = 5 cm, 2 cm and 5 cm. (given)
Volume of the Cuboid = 5 cm × 2 cm × 5 cm = 50 cm³
For the prime factorisation of 50,
we have
50 = 2 × 5 × 5
To make it a Perfect Cube,
we must have, 2 × 2 × 2 × 5 × 5 × 5
= 20 × (2 × 5 × 5)
= 20 × volume of the given Cuboid
Thus, the required number of Cuboids = 20.
