Detailed Solution

The given number is 260.
Making use of prime factorization, first represent the provided number as a product of the prime factors, then create pairs of identical factors with the two factors in each pair being equal.

⇒ 260 = 2 × 2 × 5 × 13 = 22 × 5 × 13

Here, 260 is not a perfect square since the factors 5 and 13 do not form a pair.
Therefore, the given statement is false.
Thus, option 2 is correct.
