(B) The sum of the factors of 60 except for 60 itself.
Which is the greater quantity?
(A) 60
(B) The sum of the factors of 60 except for 60 itself.
Leaving out 60 itself, the factors of 60 are 
. The sum of all of these factors can easily be seen to exceed 60, since the sum of the three largest factors is
.
This makes (B) greater.
Leaving out 60 itself, the factors of 60 are
This makes (B) greater.

How many integers from 121 to 150 inclusive do not have 2, 3, or 5 as a factor?
How many integers from 121 to 150 inclusive do not have 2, 3, or 5 as a factor?
An integer is a multiple of 2 if and only if it ends in 2, 4, 6, 8, or 0; it is a multiple of 5 if and only if it ends in a 0 or 5. We can immediately eliminate these integers, leaving us with this set:
Of these integers, the multiples of 3 are 123, 129, 141, and 147, leaving the set:
The correct response is eight.
