Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 1146

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

2520=252×10 =22×32×71×10 =23×32×51×71 Number of proper divisors =3+12+11+11+1-2 =48-2=46 Number of odd divisors =12+11+11+1, as power of 2 should be zero here =12 ∙ Subtract 1 here as in these 12 divisors, 1 is also counted which is not…
