For perfect cube. All index notation must be multiple of 3.
Example : a³ x b⁶ x c⁹

For this question,
2⁴ x 3² x 7² X k
The only way to make it to
2⁶ x 3³ x 7³ for perfect cube.
So k = 3 x 7
Cause ⁴ x 3² x 7² x (3 x 7) = 2⁶ x 3³ x 7³

For perfect cube, when a number ³√ = a whole number, example ³√8 = 2 or ³√125 = 5.
Hence 2³ = 8 when ³√8 =2 so, index notation of 2 must be in multiple of 3, I.e:2³

Same for perfect square,when a number √ = a whole number, example √16 = 4 or √144 = 12.
Hence, 16 = 4², so √16 = 4 whole number.
