Hi Satyaram,

 

Factorise 840.

840 = 2*2*2*3*5*7

 

Now from this find the number of ways in which, you can write this as a product of 5 numbers.

You need to do quite a bit of working on this.

 

Do not forget to include 1s when you are writing it as a product of 5 terms.

As for eg, one of the possibility can be 1*1*1*24*35.

So you need to find all such possibilities.

 

From here, you should do the workings.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Regards,

Ashwin (IIT Madras).
