Problem
Find the number of ordered pairs of positive integers such that
.
Solution
In this problem, we want to find the number of ordered pairs such that
. Let
. Therefore, we want two numbers,
and
, such that their product is
and
is a perfect square. Note that there is exactly one valid
for a unique
, which is
. This reduces the problem to finding the number of unique perfect square factors of
.
Therefore, the answer is
~superagh

Solution 2 (Official MAA)
Because , if
, there must be nonnegative integers
,
,
, and
such that
and
. Then
and
The first equation has
solutions corresponding to
, and the second equation has
solutions corresponding to
. Therefore there are a total of
ordered pairs
such that
.
