Read Solution (Total 8)
-
- 2880/3=960 is not a perfect square
2880/4=720 is not a perfect square
2880/5=576 which is perfect square of 24
hence the answer is option c)5 - 13 years agoHelpfull: Yes(20) No(1)
- 2880 -> 2*5*12*12*2
Hence, ANSWER (c) - 13 years agoHelpfull: Yes(15) No(4)
- 2880/3=960 is not a perfect square
2880/4=720 is not a perfect square
2880/5=576 which is perfect square of 24
hence the answer is option c)5

- the prime factor of 2880 is 2^6*3^2*5
there is an even no of power of each except 5 so when we divide the no by 5 we get 2^6*3^2=(2^3*3)^2
which is nothing but 24^2 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- option c.5..
2880/5=576=24*24.. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- LCM of 2880=2^6*3^2*5
since 5 is not paired so 5 is divided to make perfect square
OPTION C - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 2880/5=576
576 is the perfect square of 24
(24)^2=576 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 2880/5=576 which is perfect square of 24
hence the answer is option c)5 - 5 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
