At one point, she believed GMAT wasn’t for her. After scoring 595, self-doubt crept in and she questioned her potential. But instead of quitting, she made the right strategic changes. The result? A remarkable comeback to 695. Check out how Saakshi did it.

Question: z = ?
Statement 1: z has exactly one prime factor.
i.e. z itself is prime or a \(Prime^{Integer}\)
i.e. z = 2, 3, 5, 7, 11,... or 2, 4, 8, 16..., 3, 9, 27, ... etc.
NOT SUFFICIENT
Statement 2: 18 < z < 32, and z has exactly three factors
i.e. Numbers in given range are {19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31}
But Number with 3 factors will be of the form \(Prime^2\)
But only 25 has three factors among them because \(25 = 5^2\) whose factors are {\(1, 5, 25\)}
SUFFICIENT
ANswer: Option B
FOr property on Number of Factors please refer the following concept video made by us.

(1) z has exactly one prime factor.
Let that one prime factor of z be "\(a\)"
--> Possible values of z = {\(a\), \(a^2\), \(a^3\), . . . . . } --> Insufficient
(2) 18 < z < 32, and z has exactly three factors.
Note: A number will have 3 factors ONLY when the number if of the form \(a^2\) {Factors = 1, \(a\), \(a^2\)}
--> Possible values of z = \(5^2\) with factors {\(1\), \(5\), \(5^2\)} --> Sufficient
Option B
