  1. Answer:

    9.Firstly we need to factorize the number 1600

    After factorization we get,

    ⇒1600= 2∗2∗2
    ∗ 2∗2∗2
    ∗ 5∗5

    ​ We need to group the expanded numbers in a group of three since it has to be a perfect cube.

    The number 5 does not form a triplet. It contains only two 5 ′
    s. Hence the number 5×5=25 has to be divided so that the quotient becomes a perfect cube.

    10.Prime factorising 8788, we get,


    8788=2×2×13×13×13

    =22
    ×133
    .


    We know, a perfect cube has multiples of 3 as powers of prime factors.


    Here, number of 2’s is 2 and number of 13’s is 3.


    So we need to divide 22 from the factorization to make 8788 a perfect cube.


    Hence, the smallest number by which 8788 must be divided to obtain a perfect cube is 22
    =4.

    Plz. mark my answer as the brainliest. I really need it.
