We have, 2744
Resolving 2744 into prime factors, We get
2744= 2 x 2 x 2 x 7 x 7 x 7 =(2 x 7)3=(14)3
Clearly, prime factor of2744 are grouped into triplets
So,2744 is a perfect cube of 14.

Let the number of Rs. 50 notes and Rs. 20 notes be 9x and 8x, respectively, but he has 61 notes in total.
So, the number Rs.10 notes = 61- (9x + 8x)= 61-17x
Now, the amount he has
From Rs. 50 notes = 9x x 50 = Rs. 450x
From Rs. 20 notes = 8x x 20 = Rs. 160x
From Rs. 10 notes = (61-17x) x 10 = Rs. (610 -170x)
Hence, the total money he has = 450x + 160x + (610 -l70x) = f (610 + 440x)
But he has total of the money = Rs. 1050
\(\therefore\) 610 + 440x = 1050
\(\Rightarrow\) 440x = 1050 - 610 \(\Rightarrow\) 440x = 440 \(\Rightarrow\) x = 440 x\(\left( \frac { 1 }{ 440 } \right) \) = 1
\(\therefore\) The number of \(Rs\). 50 notes he has = 9 x 1 = 9
The number of \(Rs\) 20 notes he has = 8 x 1 = 8
The number \(Rs\) 10 notes he has = (61-17 x 1) = 44
14.
x = 0, it satisfies equation

\(x=\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \)
16.
Let 'x' be the side of the cube.
\(\therefore x^3=64 or \sqrt[3]{x^3}=\sqrt[3]{64}\)
\(\Rightarrow \ x =\sqrt[3]{2\times2\times2\times2\times2\times2}=\sqrt[3]{2^3\times2^3}\)
=2x2=4
Thus, the required side of the cube is 4 cm.
17.
We have 1008 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 7
As the prime factor 7 has no pair.
\(\therefore\)1008 is not a perfect square.
Obviously, if 7 gets a pair, then the number will become a perfect square.
\(\therefore\)1008 x 7
= [2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 7] x 7
or 7056 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 7
Thus, 7056 is the required multiple of 1008
which is a perfect square.
Now, \(\sqrt{7056}\) = 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 = 84

18.
We have 31944 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3
x11x11x11
Since, the prime factors of 31944 do not appear in triples as 3 is left over.
\(\therefore\)31944 is not a perfect cube.
Obviously, 31944 \(\div\) 3 will be a perfect cube
i.e., [31944] \(\div\) 3
= [2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 11 x 11 x11] \(\div\) 3
or 10648 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 11 x 11 x 11
\(\therefore\) 10648 is a perfect cube.
Thus, the required least number = 3.

19.
2028 \(\times\) 3 = 6084 is a perfect square.
The square root of 6084 is 78.
20.
Let the number of winners be x.
Then, the number of participants who did not win = 36-x
Amount spent on x prizes = Rs. 500 x x = Rs. 500x
Amount spent on (36 - x) prizes = Rs. 100 x (36 - x) =
= Rs. (3600 -100x)
But 500x + (3600 -100x) = 4800
\(\Rightarrow\) 500x + 3600 -100x = 4800
\(\Rightarrow\) 400x = 4800 - 3600
\(\Rightarrow\) x = 1200 x \(\frac { 1 }{ 400 } \Rightarrow x=3\)
So, the number of winners is 3

Let the numerator be x, then denominator = (x + 2).
New numerator = x +3 ; New denominator = (x + 2) -1 = x +1
\(\therefore\) New Number \(\frac { x+3 }{ x-1 } \)
As per the condition, We have \(\frac { x+3 }{ x-1 } =\frac { 7 }{ 6 } \) \(\Rightarrow\) (x + 3) x 6 = 7 x (x +1)[by cross-multiplication]
6x + 18 = 7x + 7\(\Rightarrow\) 6x - 7x = 7 - 18 \(\Rightarrow\) x = - 11\(\Rightarrow\) x= - 11\(\Rightarrow\) x-\(\frac { -1 }{ 1 } \) =11
\(\therefore\) Rational number = \(\frac { 11 }{ 11+2 } =\frac { 11 }{ 13 } \)
25.
Given, speed of stream = 2 km/h
Let speed of steamer in still water be x km/h.
Then, speed of downstream = (x + 2) km/h
and speed of upstream = (x - 2) km/h
\(\therefore\) Distance covered in 7 h while downstream = 7(x + 2)
and distance covered in 8 h while upstream = 8(x - 2)
According to the question, 7(x + 2) = 8(x - 2)
\(\Rightarrow\) 7x + 14 = 8x - 16 ~ x = 30 km/h
Total distance = 7(x + 2) km = 7(30 + 2) km = 7 x 32 km = 224 km
Hence, speed of the steamer in still water is 30 km/h and the distance between the ports is 224 km
