• square of prime numbers are divisible by 1, itself and prime no.. eg: factors of 4 are 4,2,1..
  the no's are 4,9,25,49,81... 361 (19^2)
  answer is 9..

• i think 8 is the answer

• In this case, Number of factors is 3 and two of the three factors of a number are 1 and the number itself. The third factor has to be a prime number.
  so p+1=3
  p=2
  n=a2
  a2=400
  a=20
  so prime values between 1 to 20 is 2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19 so answer is 8

• Ans is 8
  square of prime number and 9 total 7+1=8

• ans is 20.. as the question is how many no's have three factors..

• In this case, Number of factors is 3 and two of the three factors of a number are 1 and the number itself. The third factor has to be a prime number.
  
  P+1 = 3 or p = 2
  
  Therefore, N = a^2
  
  N < 400
  
  or a^2 < 400
  
  or a < 20
  
  Since P is a prime number, p can assume 10 values (Take every prime number between 1 and 20 viz. 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19)
  
  Thus Ans = 8
