| Answer : open--> 10 Closed-->90
The opening and closing depends on the no. of factors for a given door no.
Thus there are 10 perfect squares within hundred. So all perfect sqaures have odd no. of factors. so 10 doors are opened. All numbers which are not perfect squares have even no. of fators. So 90 doors remain closed. |
