If (N=2^4\times3^2\times5^3), how many factors of (N) are divisible by (25)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (30)
Step 1: Since (25=5^2), the factor must contain at least (5^2). Step 2: Choices for (2): (5), for (3): (3), for (5): (2) or (3), giving (2) choices. Total (=5\times3\times2=30). Step 3: Treat (25) as (5^2) before counting.
