Maths Puzzle
Which of the following has the most number of divisors?
A. 99 B. 101
C. 176 D. 182
Read Solution (Total 2)
-
- No. of divisors can be found out
from the index of prime factors of that number
99=3^2*11^1( No. of divisors=3*2=6)( simply increase 1 of the index of prime factor and multiply)
101=No. of divisors=2 as the same is the prime No.
176=2^4+11^1( No. of divisors=5*2=10
182=2^1*7^1*13^1(No. of divisors=2*2*2=8
Hence, 176 has 10 divisors
