Because it's a square and doesn't list the 6 twice.

How many integers less than 100 have an odd number of factors?

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.

If a number has an odd number of factors is it a perfect square?

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.
