If the given number is,say N, and if its prime factors are k1,k2,k3.... raised to powers r1,r2,r3 respectively. N can be written as,
N = (k1^r1)*(k2^r2)*(k3^r3)......
Now can anybody off you give me the formula for above mentioned question ?

hi bh8153.The formula you gave is for Number factors of a number. Read my question carefully.

I had derived a formula for this,but now i dont remeber what i had done

Any factor of N is (k1^e1)*(k2^e2)*(k3^e3)... where 0 <= e1 <= r1, 0 <= e2 <= r2, etc. So the total number of factors is f = (r1+1)*(r2+1)*(r3+1)... Every 2 factors multiply to N, so the product of all the factors is N^(f/2).

If all the r's are even, then N is a perfect square, and f/2 comes out to be "half-integral" because the square root of N is a factor only once, not twice.

That's the formula, as it were -- the prime factorization.

buddy, there isn't even a formula to tell you all the factors of a given number...how can we have one to tell you the product of them all?
pretty sure you have to figure it out manually.
