Correct answer: 5120

  1. Understand the sets

    Let S={p1,p2,…,p10}S=\{p_1,p_2,\dots,p_{10}\}S={p1​,p2​,…,p10​} be the first ten prime numbers.

    So ∣S∣=10|S|=10∣S∣=10.

    The set PPP consists of all possible products of distinct elements of SSS.

    That means every element of PPP is obtained by choosing a non-empty subset of SSS having at least 2 elements, and multiplying its elements.

    Hence each element of A=S∪PA=S\cup PA=S∪P corresponds exactly to a non-empty subset of SSS:

    • subsets of size 111 give the elements of SSS,
    • subsets of size ≥2\ge 2≥2 give the elements of PPP.

    Therefore, every non-empty subset of SSS gives one unique element of AAA.

    So, ∣A∣=210−1=1023.|A|=2^{10}-1=1023.∣A∣=210−1=1023.

  2. Interpret the divisibility condition

    We need the number of ordered pairs (x,y)(x,y)(x,y) such that:

    • x∈Sx\in Sx∈S,
    • y∈Ay\in Ay∈A,
    • xxx divides yyy.

    Since xxx is a prime from SSS, and each y∈Ay\in Ay∈A is a product of distinct primes from some non-empty subset of SSS, we have:

    x∣y  ⟺  the prime x appears in the subset corresponding to y.x\mid y \iff \text{the prime } x \text{ appears in the subset corresponding to } y.x∣y⟺the prime x appears in the subset corresponding to y.

  3. Count for a fixed }x$

    Fix some prime x∈Sx\in Sx∈S.

    To form a y∈Ay\in Ay∈A divisible by xxx, the subset corresponding to yyy must contain xxx.

    Now among the 10 primes, one prime is fixed as included (xxx), and each of the remaining 9 primes may be either included or not included.

    Thus the number of subsets containing xxx is 29=512.2^9=512.29=512.

    Each such subset gives exactly one element y∈Ay\in Ay∈A divisible by xxx.

    Hence, for each fixed xxx, the number of valid yyy is 512.512.512.

  4. Count all ordered pairs

    Since there are 10 choices for x∈Sx\in Sx∈S, Total number of ordered pairs=10⋅29=10⋅512=5120.\text{Total number of ordered pairs} = 10\cdot 2^9 = 10\cdot 512 = 5120.Total number of ordered pairs=10⋅29=10⋅512=5120.

  5. Final answer

    5120\boxed{5120}5120​

  6. Comparison with stored answer
