Question 2 :-

Find which of the following are perfect cubes :
(i) 243
(ii) 588
(iii) 1331
(iv) 24000
(v) 1728
(vi) 1938
Answer :-

(i) 243

3 243
3 81
3 27
3 9
3 3
1

∵ 243 = 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3
= (3 x 3 x 3) x 3 x 3
= 33 x 3 x 3
∴ 279 is not a perfect cube.

(ii) 588

2 588
2 294
7 147
7 21
3 3
1

588 = 2 x 2 x 7 x 7 x 3

∴ 588 is not perfect cube.

(iii) 1331

11 1331
11 121
11 11
1

∴ 1331 = 11 x 11 x 11 = (11)3
∴ 1331 is a perfect cube.

(iv) 24000

∵ 24000 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 5 x 5
= (2)2 x (2)3 x (5)3 x 3
∴ 24000 is not a perfect cube.

(v) 1728

2 1728
2 864
2 432
2 216
2 108
2 54
3 27
3 9
3 3
1

∵ 1728 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3
= (2)3 x (2)3 x (3)3
∵  1728 is a perfect cube.

(vi) 1938

2 1938
3 936
17 323
19 19
1

1938 = 2 x 3 x 17 x 19
1938 is not a perfect cube.
