To do:

We have to find the smallest number by which the given numbers must be multiplied so that the products are perfect cubes.

Solution:

(i) Prime factorisation of $675=3\times3\times3\times5\times5$

Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we find that $5 \times 5$ is not a complete triplet.

Therefore, by multiplying $675$ by 5, we get,

$675\times5=3\times3\times3\times5\times5\times5$

Hence, the smallest number by which the given number must be multiplied so that the product is a perfect cube is 5.

(ii) Prime factorisation of $1323=3\times3\times3\times7\times7$

Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we find that $7 \times 7$ is not a complete triplet.

Therefore, by multiplying $1323$ by 7, we get,

$1323\times7=3\times3\times3\times7\times7\times7$

Hence, the smallest number by which the given number must be multiplied so that the product is a perfect cube is 7.

(iii) Prime factorisation of $2560=2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times5$

Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we find that $5$ is not a complete triplet.

Therefore, by multiplying $2560$ by $5\times5=25$, we get,

$2560\times5\times5=2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times5\times5\times5$

Hence, the smallest number by which the given number must be multiplied so that the product is a perfect cube is 25.

(iv) Prime factorisation of $7803=3\times3\times3\times17\times17$

Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we find that $17\times17$ is not a complete triplet.

Therefore, by multiplying $7809$ by $17$, we get,

$7809\times17=3\times3\times3\times17\times17\times17$

Hence, the smallest number by which the given number must be multiplied so that the product is a perfect cube is 17.

(v) Prime factorisation of $107811=3\times3\times3\times3\times11\times11\times11$

Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we find that $3$ is not a complete triplet.

Therefore, by multiplying $107811$ by $3\times3=9$, we get,

$107811\times3\times3=3\times3\times3\times3\times3\times3\times11\times11\times11$

Hence, the smallest number by which the given number must be multiplied so that the product is a perfect cube is 9.
