The answer can be given by writing all the prime factors as: N = 24 * 33 = 2^3 * 3*2 * 11 = answer will be : (3+1)*(2+1)*(1+1) = 24 This is the answer considering (a,b) and (b,a) different If you consider them same the answer is 24/2 = 12. Nikhil Gupta IIT Roorkee -- You received this

The number of distinct factors a number has is given by the product of one more than the maximum power of each of the prime factors. the number 24*33 = 792 can be written as (2^3)*(3^2)*(11^1) then the number of distinct factors of 792 will become (3+1)*(2+1)*(1+1) = 24 So we can form 24/2 = 12
