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?
36 is a perfect square number.
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.
It is 2 times 18 = 36 which is a perfect square number because 6 time 6 = 36
No, consider the number 4 or 16 or 36 for example
Square numbers have odd numbers of factors.
To find the factors of a number easily, here’s a simple method: **Start with 1 and the number itself**: Every number is divisible by 1 and itself. So, the first two factors are always 1 and the number. **Divide the number by increasing integers**: Begin dividing the number by 2, then 3, 4, and so on. For each division, if the result is a whole number (no remainder), then the divisor is a factor of the number. **Stop at the square root**: You don’t need to go beyond the square root of the number. For example, to find factors of 36, you only need to check up to 6 (because the square root of 36 is 6). If you find a divisor (e.g., 2), its pair (e.g., 18) is also a factor. Example: Find the factors of 36 Start with 1 and 36. 36 ÷ 2 = 18, so 2 and 18 are factors. 36 ÷ 3 = 12, so 3 and 12 are factors. 36 ÷ 4 = 9, so 4 and 9 are factors. 36 ÷ 6 = 6, so 6 is a factor (pairs with itself). So, the factors of 36 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36. This method works for any number!
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.
