Perfect squares have an odd number of factors. There are 31 perfect squares less than 1000.
a number when all the proper factors added up equals 1 less then your number
There are 9 integers less than 100 that have an odd number of factors.Every factor of a number has a pair, eg 2 & 3 are a factor pair of 6; and so it would be expected that every number has an even number of factors.However, if the factor pair of a number are the same number (eg 6 & 6 are a factor pair of 36), then there will be an odd number of factors.When there is a repeated factor like this, the number is a perfect square.Thus only perfect squares have an odd number of factors.Less than 100 there are 9 perfect squares (1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64 & 81) which have an odd number of factors.100 itself is a perfect square and also has an odd number of factors, but the question asked for those numbers less than 100 with an odd number of factors.
It means subtract 5 from 8 or find the number that is 5 less than 8
