Consider the factors of 1125, looking for the largest perfect square which is a factor
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "1,3,5,9,15,25,45,75,125,225,375,1125
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "We see that 225 * 5 = 1125, therefore
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "1125x = 5 * 225 * x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "if x = 5, we know that 1125 * 5 = 5625 and square root(5625) = 75, therefore
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "75^2 = 5625 is a perfect square
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "We know that 1125 * 1 is not a perfect square so
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "I submit that x = 5 is the smallest whole number when multiplied by 1125 yields a perfect square
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "I will leave it to you to check 2, 3, 4
