Answer:

10

Explanation:

55³ + 66³ =

= (5 × 11)³ + (2 × 3 × 11)³

= 5³ × 11³ + 2³ × 3³ × 11³

= 11³(5³ + 2³ × 3³)

= 11³ × 341

= 11³ × 11 × 31

= 11^4 × 31

The factors are:

1, 11, 31, 11², 11³, 11^4, 11 × 31, 11² × 31, 11³ × 31, 11^4 × 31

The factors are:

1, 11, 31, 121, 341, 1331, 3751, 14641, 41261, 453871

Answer: 10
