Answer:

A big "NO".

Explanation:

Nope! It isn't correct to say that any number multiplied by 3 is a perfect cube. Let's take some examples :

  • Multiply 3 by 2 we'll get 6 which isn't a perfect cube.
  • Multiply 3 by 4 we'll get 12 which isn't a perfect cube.
  • Multiply 3 by 5 we'll get 15 which isn't a perfect cube.

Thus, it isn't correct to say that any number multiplied by 3 is a perfect cube.
