Algebra.Com's Answer #604770 by KMST(5328)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! \"I am the number which will make a rectangle 3 times wide\" may mean that \n" ); document.write( "if the number is the length of a rectangle, \n" ); document.write( "it will be twice the whole number measurement of the width of that rectangle. \n" ); document.write( "In other words, I take that to mean that the number is a multiple of \n" ); document.write( "That means \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"I am the number which has one of my factor as 4\" means that \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"I am the number which is not a multiple of 5 or 7\" tells us that 5 and 7 are not prime factors of that mystery number, but it is not a particularly useful clue. \n" ); document.write( "Other prime numbers could be factors, like 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, etc .\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"I am the number which has exactly 8 factors\" is an important clue. \n" ); document.write( "A number \n" ); document.write( "has a prime factorization of the form \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "The factors of \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "There are \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "and so on. \n" ); document.write( "With all the combined possible choices, we can make \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "If \n" ); document.write( "knowing that \n" ); document.write( "it is obvious that it must be \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "So, |
