If (N=2^6\times3^2\times7^2), how many factors (d) are there such that (d^2) also divides (N)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (32)
Step 1: If (d=2^a\times3^b\times7^c), then (d^2=2^{2a}\times3^{2b}\times7^{2c}). Step 2: Conditions are (2a\le6), (2b\le2), (2c\le2), so choices are (4,2,2). Total (=16). Step 3: For square divisibility, double the exponents and compare.
