I believe this question is probably more of a level 3 question as the solution is relatively short and elementary (doesn't require advanced knowledge). Firstly, break down the two constants into their prime factorization: 6 0 7 60^{7} = 2 14 2^{14} × \times 3 7 3^{7} × \times 5 7 5^{7} and 2 5 14 25^{14} = 5 28 5^{28} . So just take out the factor 5 7 5^{7} out of 6 0 7 60^{7} to leave 2 14 2^{14} × \times 3 7 3^{7} , from which we have to calculate the number of divisors. Now if n {n} = p n a n p^{a_n}_{n} ! = 2 a 1 2^{a_1} × \times 3 a 2 3^{a_2} × \times ... p a n p^{a_n} then the number of divisors = [ a 1 a_{1} +1][ a 2 a_{2} +1]...[ a n a_{n} +1]. The answer is \therefore 15 × \times 8 = 120 \boxed{120 }
