The correct Answer is:
To find the smallest number by which 27783 must be multiplied to obtain a perfect square, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Factorization of 27783 First, we need to factorize the number 27783. We will check for divisibility by prime numbers. - Since 27783 is odd, it is not divisible by 2. - Next, we check divisibility by 3. We sum the digits: 2 + 7 + 7 + 8 + 3 = 27, which is divisible by 3. Now we divide: \[ 27783 \div 3 = 9261 \] ### Step 2: Continue Factorization Next, we factor 9261. Again, we check for divisibility by 3: - Sum of digits of 9261: 9 + 2 + 6 + 1 = 18, which is also divisible by 3. Now we divide: \[ 9261 \div 3 = 3087 \] Continuing with 3087: - Sum of digits: 3 + 0 + 8 + 7 = 18, divisible by 3. Now we divide: \[ 3087 \div 3 = 1029 \] Continuing with 1029: - Sum of digits: 1 + 0 + 2 + 9 = 12, divisible by 3. Now we divide: \[ 1029 \div 3 = 343 \] ### Step 3: Factor 343 Now we factor 343. We check for divisibility by 7: \[ 343 \div 7 = 49 \] And since \( 49 = 7 \times 7 \): \[ 49 = 7^2 \] So, \( 343 = 7^3 \). ### Step 4: Complete Factorization Now we can write the complete factorization of 27783: \[ 27783 = 3^4 \times 7^3 \] ### Step 5: Determine the Smallest Number to Multiply For a number to be a perfect square, all the powers in its prime factorization must be even. - The power of 3 is 4 (even). - The power of 7 is 3 (odd). To make the power of 7 even, we need to multiply by \( 7^1 \) (which is 7). ### Conclusion Thus, the smallest number by which 27783 must be multiplied to obtain a perfect square is: \[ \text{Answer} = 7 \] ---
