Don't get bogged down in the function language: the goal
is to compare each of the 5 numbers by finding the product of the prime factors
of each. That'll take some time, as it requires finding the distinct prime factors
of each number:
(A) 84 = 2²(3)(7), so 2 x 3 x 7 = 42
(B) 90 = 2(3²)(5), so 2 x 3 x 5 = 30
(C) 95 = 5(19), so 5 x 19 = 95
(D) 96 = 25(3), so 2 x 3 = 6
(E) 100 = 2²(5²), so 2 x 5 = 10
The smallest product is that of the prime factors of 96, choice (D).

Could you explain this answer please. 96=25(3)? I get 3x2x4x4, which would be 24.

Edit - I see the mistake now was writing 25 instead of 2^5. Answer makes sense!
