AMC8 2008 8, Problem 24

Ten tiles numbered $1$ through $10$ are turned face down. One tile is turned up at random, and a die is rolled. What is the probability that the product of the numbers on the tile and the die will be a square?

Solution: The numbers can at most multiply to be $60$. The squares less than $60$ are $1,4,9,16,25,36,$ and $49$. The possible pairs are $(1,1),(1,4),(2,2),(4,1),(3,3),(9,1),(4,4),(8,2),(5,5),(6,6),$ and $(9,4)$. There are $11$ choices and $60$ possibilities giving a probability of $\fbox{\frac{11}{60}}$.

Answer: \frac{11}{60}
