Q10(ii):
Factorise each of the following:
(ii) $64m^3 – 343n^3$
[Hint : See Question 9.]
Solution :
Given Expression & Initial Setup
We are tasked with factorising the following algebraic expression:
$64m^3 - 343n^3$
Upon initial inspection, the expression consists of two terms separated by a minus sign. The variables $m$ and $n$ are both raised to the third power, which strongly indicates that we must evaluate the numerical coefficients to determine if they are also perfect cubes.
Step 1: Identifying Perfect Cubes
To apply the relevant algebraic identity, we must rewrite both terms entirely as perfect cubes in the form of $x^3$ and $y^3$.
- First Term ($64m^3$): The prime factorization of $64$ is $2^6$, which can be grouped as $(2^2)^3 = 4^3$. Therefore, the entire first term can be rewritten as:
$64m^3 = (4m)^3$ - Second Term ($343n^3$): The prime factorization of $343$ is $7 \times 7 \times 7 = 7^3$. Therefore, the entire second term can be rewritten as:
$343n^3 = (7n)^3$
Substituting these back into the original expression yields:
$(4m)^3 - (7n)^3$
Step 2: Stating the Relevant Algebraic Identity
The expression is now explicitly in the form of a difference of two cubes. [Per the fundamental algebraic identities of polynomials], the difference of two cubes is factored using the following formula:
$x^3 - y^3 = (x - y)(x^2 + xy + y^2)$
Step 3: Substitution and Expansion
By mapping our specific terms to the identity, we establish the following equivalencies:
- $x = 4m$
- $y = 7n$
We now substitute these values directly into the right-hand side of the identity, $(x - y)(x^2 + xy + y^2)$:
$= (4m - 7n) \left[ (4m)^2 + (4m)(7n) + (7n)^2 \right]$
Step 4: Final Simplification
To achieve the final factorised form, we must expand the terms within the square brackets by applying the exponent rules [specifically $(ab)^n = a^n b^n$] and performing basic multiplication:
- Square the first term: $(4m)^2 = 4^2 \cdot m^2 = 16m^2$
- Multiply the two terms: $(4m)(7n) = 4 \cdot 7 \cdot m \cdot n = 28mn$
- Square the second term: $(7n)^2 = 7^2 \cdot n^2 = 49n^2$
Substituting these simplified components back into our factored expression yields:
$= (4m - 7n)(16m^2 + 28mn + 49n^2)$
Final Solution: $(4m - 7n)(16m^2 + 28mn + 49n^2)$
