Question1 196 is the square of
(a) 11 (b) 12
(c) 14 (d) 16
Solution.
(c) Square of 11 = 11 x 11 = 121
Square of 12 = 12 x 12 = 144
Square of 14 = 14 x 14 = 196
Clearly, 196 is the square of 14

Question 2 Which of the following is a square of an even number?
(a) 144 (b) 169
(c) 441 (d) 625
Solution.
ncert-exemplar-problems-class-8-mathematics-square-square-root-and-cube-cube-root-1
Thus, 144 is a square of an even number.
Alternate Method
We know that, square of an even number is always an even number. Hence, 169, 441 and 625 are not even numbers. So, only 144 is an even number, which is the square of 12.

Hence, 10 natural numbers lie between 52 and 62.

Question 6 Which of the following cannot be a perfect square?
(a) 841 (b) 529 (c) 198 (d) All of these
Solution.(c) We know that, a number ending with digits 2, 3, 7 or 8 can never be a perfect square. So, 198 cannot be written in the form of a perfect square.

Question 13 Which of the following numbers is a perfect cube?
(a) 243 (b) 216 (c) 392 (d) 8640
Solution.(b) For option (a) We have, 243
Resolving 243 into prime factors, we have
243= 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3
Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we get
243 = (3 x 3 x 3) x 3 x 3
Clearly, in grouping, the factors in triplets of equal factors, we are left with two factors 3 x 3.
Therefore, 243 is not a perfect cube.
For option (b) We have, 216 Resolving 216 into prime factqrs, we have
216 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3
Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we get 216 = (2 x 2 x 2) x (3 x 3 x 3)
Clearly, in grouping, the factors of triplets of equal factors, no factor is left over.
So, 216 is a perfect cube.
For option (c) We have, 392
Resolving 392 into prime factors, we get
392 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 7 x 7
Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we get
392 = (2 x 2 x 2) x 7 x 7
Clearly, in grouping, the factors in triplets of equal factors, we are left with two factors 7 x 7.
Therefore, 392 is not a perfect cube.
For option (d) We have, 8640
Resolving 8640 into prime factors, we get
8640=2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 5
Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we get
8640 = (2 x 2 x 2) x (2 x 2 x 2) x (3 x 3 x 3) x 5
Clearly, in grouping, the factors in triplets of equal factors, we are left with one factor 5. Therefore, 8640 in not a perfect cube.
After solving, it is clear that option (b) is correct.

Question 17 A perfect square can never have the following digit in its one’s place.
(a) 1 (b) 8 (c) 0 (d) 6
Solution.
(b) We know that, a number ending with digits 2, 3, 7 or 8 can never be a perfect square. Clearly, a perfect square can never have the digit 8 in its one’s place.

Question 18 Which of the following numbers is not a perfect cube?
(a) 216 (b) 567 (c) 125 (d) 343
Solution.
(b) 216=6 x 6 x 6, 567 = 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 7
125 = 5 x 5 x 5, 343 = 7 x 7 x 7
Clearly, 567 is not a perfect cube, because in grouping, the factors in triplets of equal factors, we are left with two factors 3 x 7.

ncert-exemplar-problems-class-8-mathematics-square-square-root-and-cube-cube-root-28

Question 46 The least number by which 72 be multiplied to make it a perfect cube, is________
Solution. 3
Resolving 72 into prime factors, we get
72=2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we get
72 = (2 x 2 x 2) x 3 x 3
We find that 2 occurs as a prime factor of 72 thrice, but 3 occurs as a prime factor only twice. Thus, if we multiply 72 by 3, 3 will also occurs as a prime factor thrice and the product will be 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3, which is a perfect cube.
Hence, the least number, which should be multiplied with 72 to get perfect cube, is 3.

Grouping the factors in triplets of equal factors, we get
72 = (2 x 2 x 2) x 3 x 3
Clearly, if we divide 72 by 3 x 3, the quotient would be 2 x 2 x 2, which is a perfect cube. Hence, the least number by which 72 be divided to make it, a perfect cube, is 9.

Question 48 Cube of a number ending in 7 will end in the digit________
Solution 3
We know that, the cubes of the numbers ending in digits 3 or 7 ends in digits 7 or 3, respectively.
i.e 7 x 7 x 7 = 343
Hence, the cube of a number ending in 7 will end in the digit 3.

Question 99 Is 9720 a perfect cube? If not, find the smallest number by which it should be divided to get a perfect cube.
ncert-exemplar-problems-class-8-mathematics-square-square-root-and-cube-cube-root-59
Solution.Prime factors of 9720 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x5
The prime factors 3 and 5 do not appear in group of triplets.
So, 9720 is not a perfect cube.
If we divide the number by 3 x 3 x 5, then the prime factorisation of the quotient will not contain 3 x 3 x 5 = 45.
