a number under 100 and above 1 that has only 5 factors. Theorem: If p is a prime number, then pn has n+1 factors So if n+1 = 5 n = 4 So the 4th power of any prime number has 5 factors. There are two 4th powers of primes between 1 and 100, 16 and 81. 24 = 16 has 5 factors, namely, 1,2,4,8, and 16 34 = 81 has 5 factors, namely, 1,3,9,27, and 81 So there are two solutions, 16 and 81.
