MCQ
Find the cube root of the following number by prime factorisation method : $512$
  • A
    $6$
  • $8$
  • C
    $7$
  • D
    $9$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$8$
Prime factorising, we get,
$512 = 2 \times 2 \times 2​ \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 ​\times 2 \times 2 \times 2​$
$= 8 \times 8 \times 8​.$
Here, the factor $8$ occur as triplet. Hence, it is a perfect cube.
Therefore, cube root of $512$, i.e. $\sqrt[3]{512}=8$
