Which of the following numbers are perfect squares ?
11, 12, 16, 32, 36, 50, 64, 79, 81, 111, 121
Given :
The given numbers are 11, 12, 16, 32, 36, 50, 64, 79, 81, 111, 121.
To do :
We have to find the perfect squares among given numbers.
Solution:
Perfect Square: A perfect square has each distinct prime factor occurring an even number of times.
$11 = 1 \times 11$
11 is not a perfect square.
$12=2\times2\times3$
12 is not a perfect square.
$16=2\times2\times2\times2$
16 is a perfect square.
$32=2\times2\times2\times2\times2$
32 is not a perfect square.
$36=2\times2\times3\times3$
36 is a perfect square.
$50=2\times5\times5$
50 is not a perfect square.
$64=2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2$
64 is a perfect square.
$79=1\times79$
79 is not a perfect square.
$81=3\times3\times3\times3$
81 is a perfect square.
$111=3\times37$
111 is not a perfect square.
$121=11\times11$
121 is a perfect square.
Hence, $16, 36, 64, 81$ and $121$ are perfect squares.
