If m, p, and t are distinct positive prime numbers, then (m^3)(p)(t) has how many different positive factors greater than 1?  Choose the correct answer:
A) 8	B) 9	C) 12	D) 15	E) 27
umber of factors of (2^a)*(3^b)*(5^c) ... = (a+1)(b+1)(c+1) ...   If m, p and t are the distinct prime numbers, then the number is already represented in its prime factorization form   Number of factors = (3+1)(1+1)(1+1) = 16   Out of these, one factor would be 1.   Hence different positive factors greater than 1 = 15   Correct Option: 15
