How many positive even multiples of less than are perfect squares?
(A)
(B)
(C)
(D)
Solution
Any even multiple of is a multiple of , so we need to find multiples of that are perfect squares and less than . Any solution that we want will be in the form , where is a positive integer. The smallest possible value is at , and the largest is at (where the expression equals ). Therefore, there are a total of possible numbers.-PCChess
