Find the number that satisfies all of the following conditions:

A two-digit number,
A perfect square,
A power of 3,
The digit product < 10

For a square to be a power of three, the original number itself must be a power of 3, namely 3, 9, 27, etc.

Which of the squares of these numbers satisfies all of the above conditions?

Is the answer 81?

Correct! Well done!

Thanks,,,

You're welcome! :)

To find a number that satisfies all of these conditions, we need to go through each condition step by step.

First, we need a two-digit number. A two-digit number is any number between 10 and 99 (inclusive).

Next, we need to find a perfect square. A perfect square is a number whose square root is a whole number. We can start by checking the square of each two-digit number.

For example, we can check if 10 squared (10^2 = 100) is a perfect square. However, 100 is not a perfect square because its square root is 10, which is not a whole number.

We can continue checking the squares of the two-digit numbers until we find one where the square root is a whole number. And if we don't find one, it means there is no two-digit number that satisfies this condition.

Now, we move on to finding a power of 3. A power of 3 is any number that can be expressed as 3 raised to some exponent. We can start by checking if any of the two-digit numbers can be expressed as a power of 3.

For example, we can check if 11 can be expressed as a power of 3. However, 11 is not a power of 3.

We can continue checking the remaining two-digit numbers until we find one that can be expressed as a power of 3. If we don't find one, it means there is no two-digit number that satisfies this condition.

Finally, we need to find a number where the product of its digits is less than 10. For example, for the number 27, the product of its digits (2 * 7) is 14, which is not less than 10.

We need to check each two-digit number and calculate the product of its digits. If the product is less than 10, we have found a number that satisfies this condition.

Continuing the process, we can find that the number 81 satisfies all the conditions. It is a two-digit number, a perfect square (9^2 = 81), a power of 3 (3^4 = 81), and the product of its digits (8 * 1) is less than 10.

So, the number that satisfies all the given conditions is 81.
