n^2 =2^(62) ×3^(38)   ⇒total number of divisors of n^2  equals   (62+1)(38+1)=63×39=2457  All divisors of n^2  that do not divide n  take the form 2^a 3^b  where 32≤a≤62 or 20≤b≤38.  (i) Suppose 32≤a≤62 and 0≤b≤19.  We can then write 2^a 3^b =2^(31+q) 3^b   where 1≤q≤31⇒ total number of divisors  =31×(19+1)=31×20=620  (ii)Suppose 32≤a≤62 and 20≤b≤38.  ⇒2^a 3^b =2^(31+q) 3^(19+x)  where 1≤q≤31  and 1≤x≤19⇒ number of divisors  is 31×19=589.  (iii)Suppose 0≤a≤31 and 20≤b≤38.  ⇒Number of divisors is (31+1)×19=32(20−1)=608  −−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−  Required total=620+589+608=1817
