You can put this solution on YOUR website! Which of the following numbers has the same set of prime factors as 315 
 
315 = 3x3x5x7       set of prime factors = {3,5,7}
(A)  15 = 3x5       set of prime factors = {3,5}
(B)  21 = 3x7       set of prime factors = {3,7}
(C)  35 = 5x7       set of prime factors = {5,7}
(D) 105 = 3x5x7     set of prime factors = {3,5,7}
(E) 125 = 5x5x5     set of prime factors = {5}
Looks like (D) is the only one.
