(iv) Prime factorisation of 675, is:
675 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5 = 33 × 5 × 5
Here, a number 5 is required to make 5 × 5 a group of three to make it a perfect cube, i.e. 5 × 5 × 5
Thus, the required smallest number is 5.
NCERT Solutions for Class 8 Maths Chapter 7 Cubes and Cube Roots Ex 7.1 Q2.3
(v) Prime factorisation of 100, is:
100 = 2 × 2 × 5 × 5
Here, number 2 and 5 are needed to multiplied 2 × 2 × 5 × 5 to make it a perfect cube, i.e., 2 × 2 × 2 × 5 × 5 × 5
Thus, the required smallest number to be multiplied is 2 × 5 = 10.

Ex 7.1 Class 8 Maths Question 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) 92
(v) 704
Solution:

i.e., 704 ÷ 11 = 64 which is a perfect cube.
Thus, 11 is the required smallest number.
NCERT Solutions for Class 8 Maths Chapter 7 Cubes and Cube Roots Ex 7.1 Q3.4

Ex 7.1 Class 8 Maths Question 4.
Parikshit makes a cuboid of plasticine of sides 5 cm, 2 cm, 5 cm. How many such cuboids will be needed to form a cube?
Solution:
The sides of the cuboid are given as 5 cm, 2 cm and 5 cm.
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.
