The fact that (-6)*(-6) = 36, for example.
36
Because, 6x6=36. A square number is a whole number times itself.
No. 81=9*9=3*27=1*81 81 has 5 factors and is a square number. 36=6*6=3*12=1*36=2*18=4*9 36 has 9 factors and is a square number. This doesn't mean that no square numbers have exactly 3 factors though, because: 9=3*3=1*9 9 has 3 factors and is a square number. 4=2*2=1*4 4 has 3 factors and is a square number. All square numbers have an odd number of factors though (because they have a whole number which multiplies by itself to get the number). Factors are whole numbers only, and not decimals. Hope this helps :)
it is 36!!! because,,, # 3+6=9 # 6x6=36 # factors are: 1 2 3 4 6 9 12 18 36= 9 factors # 36= an even number it all works so the answer is 36!
Yes, a square number means that it is the product of a number times the same number, so if you can divide a number buy the same number you get the square root. 6x6=36 and the square root of 36 is 6. 7x7 is 49 and the square root of 49 is 7. Make sense?
The factors of 36 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 36. To determine which factors are perfect squares, we need to find the square root of each factor. The factors that have whole number square roots are perfect squares. In this case, the perfect squares among the factors of 36 are 1, 4, 9, and 36.
36 is a perfect square number.
No, consider the number 4 or 16 or 36 for example
It is 2 times 18 = 36 which is a perfect square number because 6 time 6 = 36
Square numbers have odd numbers of factors.
If you mean 'prime' factors, then an odd number of them CAN'T produce a perfect square. Consider 3 factors ... A, B, and C. If their product were a perfect square, then AxB=C, which can't be true if C is a prime number. For non-prime factors, an odd number of them may or may not be a perfect square: Three factors = not a square: 2 x 3 x 5 = 30. Three factors = a square: 2 x 3 x 6 = 36.
Because it's a square and doesn't list the 6 twice.
