A natural number has prime factorization given by n = 2x3y5z, where y and z are such that y + z = 5 and y 1 + z 1 = , y > z. Then the number of odd divisions of n, including 1, is :
- A11
- B6
- C12
- D6x
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
-
Interpret the factorization
The given prime factorization is where and satisfy: and
Here and .
-
Use the second condition
We have
Since , substitute:
-
Find and
Now and satisfy
So they are roots of
Hence the pair is . Since ,
-
Find the number of odd divisors of
Since an odd divisor cannot contain the factor .
So an odd divisor is of the form where
Number of choices for is , and for is .
Therefore, total number of odd divisors is
-
Compare with options
corresponds to Option C.
-
Compare with stored correct answer
Stored correct answer is C, which matches our result.
