if g is the smallest positive integer such that 3150 multiplied by g is the square of an integer , then g must be	Choices:
A) 2  B) 5  C) 6  D) 7  E) 14

Rationale: solution : this problem is testing us on the rule that when we express a perfect square by its unique prime factors , every prime factor ' s exponent is an even number . let ’ s start by prime factorizing 3150 . 3150 = 315 x 10 = 5 x 63 x 10 = 5 x 7 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 2 3150 = 2 ^ 1 x 3 ^ 2 x 5 ^ 2 x 7 ^ 1 ( notice that the exponents of both 2 and 7 are not even numbers . this tells us that 3150 itself is not a perfect square . ) we also are given that 3150 multiplied by g is the square of an integer . we can write this as : 2 ^ 1 x 3 ^ 2 x 5 ^ 2 x 7 ^ 1 x g = square of an integer according to our rule , we need all unique prime factors ' exponents to be even numbers . thus , we need one more 2 and one more 7 . therefore , g = 7 x 2 = 14 answer is e .
Answer: E
