written under the locker is an odd number. That
odd number is equal to the number of factors. Creative Thinking p.22~p.23
Therefore, lockers 1, 4, and 9 are open, and
each locker has an odd number of factors. 1 The given numbers are prime factored, and the

Among the numbers from 1 to 100, there are 2 8 1 2 4, 10 1 2 5, 14 1 2 7,
10 square numbers which are 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36,

gates that are opened.
3 Find the numbers that are divisible by their tens
The reason why a square number has an odd
number of factors: for example, the factors digit and ones digit.
of 36 can be found in the product of two 51~59: 55 (also divisible by 5)
numbers, such as in 1 36 and 2 18. In 6 60~69: 60, 66 (also divisible by 6)
6 36, only one of the two 6's is counted as 70~79: 70, 77 (also divisible by 7)
a factor; therefore, a square number has an 80~89: 80, 88 (also divisible by 8)
odd number of factors. 90~99: 90, 99 (also divisible by 9)
Therefore, there are 9 numbers in which the
factors are divisible.
