Hello, i am new to this but i'll like to try and answer.

I think the answer is 11.

i worked it out this way -

two prime factor products 4 C 2 = 6
three prime factor products 4 C 3 = 4
four prime factor products 4 C 4 = 1

the answer is 6+4+1 = 11.

all the positive integers are

5*7 = 35 , 5*11 = 55, 5*13 =65, 7*11=77, 7*13 = 91, 11*13= 143.

5*7*11 = 385, 5*7*13= 455, 5*11*13=715, 7*11*13=1001

5*7*13*11=5005

please correct the mistakes if any.

Thank You.

Product can be a combination of 2 numbers , 3 numbers or 4 numbers.

Therefore, find the combination of 4 numbers taken 2 at a time, 4 numbers taken 3 at a time and 4 numbers taken 4 at a time

4C2 + 4C3+4C4 = 6 + 4+1 =11

Thanks

Yes, wonderful example of how a seemingly confusing problem can be sooooooo simple if you take 20 seconds to think about it and relate it to basic combinations.

Great!
