Answer: 9 integers factors
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first find the factor of 15552
15552 / 2 = 7776
7776 / 2 = 3888
3888 / 2 = 1944
1944 / 2 = 972
972 / 2 = 486
486 / 2 = 243
273 / 3 = 81
81 / 3 = 27
27 / 3 = 9
9 / 3 = 3
3 / 3 = 1
Some of the factors of 15552 are:
2×2×2×2×2×2×3×3×3×3×3
4×4×4×9×9×3
4^2 × 9^2 × 4 × 3
The factor that are perfect square are:
4, 9, 16, 36, 64, 81, 144, 576, 1296
Therefore, 9 of the positive integer factors of 15552 are perfect squares.
