The number of divisors of an odd number is 34. If it is multiplied by 12, the number of divisors will be1. 278 2. 76 3. 204 4. 216
34 = 2*17 = 1*34
N = a*b^16 OR a^33

12 = 2^2 * 3

12N = 2^2 * 3 * a * b^16
Divisors = 3*2*34 = 204 ?

it's 204

@heylady said:
suppose u put 121, 122 and 123 in the boxes....then 120 is only in 5 boxes....so minimum 5 raha,...
@albiesriram said:
okay assume that 120, 121, 122 oranges being dropped in those boxes. it Now, since the number of equal boxes to be minimum, there is already 122 boxes in which 123- 144 oranges were dropped already in sets of 5 so 5 will be the least.
Aye Aye sir!!

204 ..
Consider a triangle. Its longest side has length 12 and another of its sides has length 9. Its area is 54. What is the exact length of its third side?
1.15 2.16 3.18 4.20

if that odd no is 3 then?

Longest 12..to options me sab >12 kyu?

the the answer would be 108 or 154..but thats bot in the options ..so 204

15 ?

Waisa answer was not in the options! Though question should read '' divisor CAN be'' :)

Longest side is 12 cm and options for the third side are all above 12. Huh ? :roll::splat:
