Question

In how many ways can 2744 be resolved as a product of 2 factors?
Select one:
o a. 4
O b. 16
O c.8
d. 12​

Answer 1

Answer:

c . 8

Step-by-step explanation:

ANSWER

If the prime factorisation of a number N=a

m

×b

n

...... then number of factors is (m+1)×(n+1).... and so on

So, Prime factorisation of 2744=2

3

×7

4

And number of factors it has =(3+1)×(3+1)=4×4=16

And number of ways it can be resolved a product of two factors =

2

16

=8

Answer 2

Therefore,

the number of factors of 2744 are (3+1)×(3+1)=4×4=16.

And the number of ways it can be resolved by a product of two factors = 16/2=8.
