Find the total number of factors of 98.Options310156

To find the total number of factors of 98, we first need to find the prime factorization of 98.

98 = 2 * 49 = 2 * 7 * 7

So, the prime factorization of 98 is 2^1 * 7^2.

The total number of factors of a number is found by adding 1 to each of the exponents in the prime factorization and then multiplying these results together.

For 98, this would be (1+1) * (2+1) = 2 * 3 = 6.

So, the total number of factors of 98 is 6.
