How many factors of 36^2?

How many factors does 36^2 have?

A)2
B)8
C)24
D)25
E)26

Answer in a bit.

My solution:

factors of 36 = 2^2 * 3 ^2 = 9 factors when you write it out:
1,2,3,4,,9,12,18,6, and 36

Therefore, 36^2 = 9 * 9 factors = 81 factors.. but 81 isn't a choice..

Thanks!!!

Has to be A just for the simple fact that the other answer choices do not make sense at all.

I didn't even have 5 paragraphs for Argument - only 4. I thought I would be getting a 3 or 4, I mean I did really bad on the ...

Didn't do too good!!!

Didn't get a 700 like the other threads here, but I didn't get my target score. I got a 540 - q37 and v26. I'm not worried that much about math, I had to guess on about 5 questions because of time. Verbal is something I need to improve a lot. My target score is around 620-660. The exam wasn't that b...

Plus, for C, there is too large a gap between "coyotes" and "american west" (at one end of the sentence). Sentence sounds better when they are next to each.

That's my non-GMAT explanation :lol:
