Question 12 Marks
By what least number should the given number be multiplied to get a perfect square number? In case, find the number whose square is the new number.
7623
Answer
Resolving 7623 into prime factors:

$7623$

$=3 \times 3 \times 7 \times 11 \times 11$

$=3^2 \times 7 \times 11^2$

Thus, to get a perfect square, the given number should be multiplied by 7 .

New number $=\left(3^2 \times 7^2 \times 11^2\right)$

$=(3 \times 7 \times 11)^2$

$=(231)^2$

Hence, the number whose square is the new number is 231 .
