Rewrite the following as a perfect square.
25k6=
25,600 is 160 x 160
I'm not sure how to rewrite it to a perfect square, cause perfect squares are numbers that are multiplied by a number and that same number. (I can't explain it properly.)
Basically, any number times itself would create a perfect square. For example, 2 x 2 is 4, so 4 is a perfect square.
So in this question, 160 x 160 is 25600 which is a perfect square.
Actually Oldparts said 25k6, which is 25,600. Unless if he really did make a typo.
You know the number being squared has to end in 4 or 6.
50^2 = 2500
54^2 = 2916
There is no perfect 4-digit square that will work.
I suspect a typo.
To rewrite 25k6 as a perfect square, we need to find a number that, when multiplied by itself, equals 25k6.
To do this, we can break down 25k6 into separate factors.
First, let's consider the factor of 25. Since the square root of 25 is 5, we can rewrite 25 as (5^2).
Next, let's consider the factor of k6. To rewrite it as a perfect square, we need to find a number that, when multiplied by itself, equals k6. The square root of k6 would be the number we're looking for.
However, if k6 represents a term with a variable and exponent, like k^6, we need to divide the exponent by 2 to find the square root. The square root of k^6 is k^3.
Putting it all together, we can rewrite 25k6 as (5^2)(k^3)^2.
Thus, the rewritten form of 25k6 as a perfect square is 25(k^3)^2.
