Call d 1 < d 2 < d 3 < d 4 < d 5 , d 6 the 6 distinct divisors of N and total divisors d ( N ) = 6 . Then we have the product of divisors N is given by N 2 d ( N ) = d 1 × d 2 × ⋯ × d 6 N 3 = 6 4 8 × d 6 ⟹ N = 3 6 4 8 × d 6 it's shows N can be reduced to an integer if 6 4 8 × d 6 is the equal cube of N . Now by prime factorization of 6 4 8 we can claim as follows N = 3 2 3 × 3 4 × d 6 = 2 3 3 4 × d 6 N is an integer iff d 6 = 3 2 = 9 . Hence the answer is 9 .
Note :
N can also be the integer d 6 = 3 5 , 3 1 1 , 3 1 4 etc. If so , then the divisors of N will be differ not equal to 6.
