9^2007 can be taken care of.
As regards 223^2007,the 1st 223 will be divided in the 223;(let ; be factorial). And this will continue upto 445;(1*223)
From the 446; there will be two 223's in every ; upto 668;(2*223)
From the 669; there will be three 223's in every ; upto 891;(3*223)
And from 892; there will be four 223's in every ;upto the ans.
So the smallest X=891;+168(i.e. remaining 2007-6*223/4)
Therefore the ans. is 1059

Re: Quant Marathon - 20-06-2006, 02:30 PM

problem #133
Vaibhav wrote a certain number of positive prime numbers on a piece of paper. Vikram wrote down the product of all the possible triplets among those numbers. For every pair of numbers written by Vikram, Vishal wrote down the corresponding GCD. If 90 of the
numbers written by Vishal were prime, how many numbers did Vaibhav write?

(1)6 (2)8 (3)10 (4) Cannot be determined

me solved it like this 2007=223*9 (223 is prime)

now 223! and above has 223! in them. Also 223^2is a large no so no repitation can occur.

so no terms we need is 223+2007-1=2229

also 3 will occur so many time that it will take care of 9^2007 = 3^6021
