Answer:

smallest positive integer with 5 positive divisor is 16

smallest positive integer with 60 positive divisor is 5040

Explanation:

given data

precisely positive divisors = 5

precisely positive divisors = 60

solution

we take here
a^(x) *b^(y) *c^(z) is express as

= (x+1) × (y+1) × (z+1)

so put here now x is 4

and z = y = 0 and a is least integer more than 1 it will be 2

and b and c ≥ 1

and
x^(0) is = 1

so
a^(x) *b^(y) *c^(z) is


a^(4) is =
2^(4) = 16

so smallest positive integer with 5 positive divisor is 16

and

same like 60 positive divisors

dn = ( a1+1 ) × ( a2+1 ) × ( a3+1 ) ............ ( an+1 )

n =
p1^(a1) * p2^(a2) * p3^(a3) * ............ pn^(an) *

n = 7 × 5 × 3² ×
2^(4)

n = 5040

smallest positive integer with 60 positive divisor is 5040
