Ex 6.1, 2 Find the smallest number by which each of the following numbers must be multiplied to obtain a perfect cube. (i) 243 We see that 243 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 Since 3 does not occur in triplets, ∴ 243 is not a perfect cube. So, we multiply by 3 to make triplet So, our number becomes 243 × 3 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 Now, it becomes a perfect cube. So, we multiply 243 by 3 to make it a perfect cube
