The number ab², where a and b are prime numbers, has 6 divisors.

<h3>How many divisors are for the given expression?</h3>

Remember that any number can be written as a product of primes, for example, 15 can be written as:

15 = 3*5

Where 3 and 5 are primes.

Such that the divisors of 15 are the factors made with the primes on the right side.

So for the number:

N = a*b^2 = a*b*b

The divisors are:

a, b, a*b, b*b

And trivially, itself and 1, so there are a total of 6 divisors.

25% of what number is 19
kkurt [141]
Most of the information's necessary for solving this problem is already given in the question.
Let us assume the number to be = x
Then
25% * x = 19
(25/100) * x = 19
x/4 = 19
x = 19 * 4
   = 76
So the unknown number is 76. I hope there is no complexity in the method described above and also the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. You can use this method for solving similar type of problems in future without requiring any additional help from outside.

Simplify the expressions.<br> i^23
masha68 [24]

Answer:

-i

Step-by-step explanation:

i^0=1

i^1=i

i^2=-1

i^3=-i

i^4=1

This repeats so we want to see how many 4 factors of i there is in i^(23) which is 5 with a remainder of 3.

So i^(23)=i^3=-i.

i^(23)=i^(5*4+3)=(i^4)^5 * (i^3)=(1)^5 * (-i)=1(-i)=-i.
