Answer:

  • n = 42 and the square number is 7056

==============================

Prime factors of 168 are:

  • 168 = 2*2*2*3*7

In order to make 168n a square number we need to use each prime factor even number of times.

Add 2, 3 and 7 to the prime factors (as a minimum) to get:

  • 168*2*3*7 = 168*42 = 2⁴*3²*7² = (2²*3*7)² = 84² = 7056
