The number of distinct prime divisors of the number ` 512^(3) - 253^(3) - 259^(3)` isA. 4B. 5C. 6D. 7

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`(512)^(3)-253^(3)-259^(3)`
`=(512)^(3)-[(253^(3)+(259)^(3)]`
=`(512)^(3)-(253+259)(253^(2)+259^(2)-(253)(259))`
`=(512)^(3)-(512)[253+259)^(2)-2(253)(259)-(253)(259)]`
`= 512[(512)^(2)-{(512)^(2)-3(253)(259)}]`
`=(512)[3(253)(259)]`
`=2^(9).3. (253)(259)`
`=2^(9).3(11)(23)(7)(37)`
6 prime divisors.
