Find the smallest value of positive integer !!
$begingroup$
Find the smallest positive integer with exactly 30 positive factor
First, I use function $tau$ to find the exponential that gives $2×3×5$ and I want to find the smallest value.
How can I find it use inequality to help
And how to find the value of $sqrt{8×13×15×17+49}$? I get $x=8$ and doing perfect square ... but stuck who can help me, please
arithmetic integers

Your question is a bit unclear. Can you give some examples of the smallest value of a positive number with 2,3,4 positive factors? What do you mean with positive factors?

What have you tried? Given the primne factorization $n=prod p_i^{a_i}$ , do you know how to compute the number of factors of $n$?

@kvantour To me these feel like two separate questions that should have been asked separately, in my opinion.

The number of factors of a natural is given by the product of the multiplicities of its prime factors plus one, $(m_2+1)(m_3+1)(m_5+1)cdots$.
To obtain $30=2cdot3cdot5$ factors, you need multiplicities $1,2$ and $4$, which you will assign to the smallest possible primes, by decreasing order
$$5^13^22^4=720.$$

What do you mean by "exactly 5 positive factors"? Are these distinct or can they be the same? If the same then the smallest such integer is $2^5= 32$. It they must all be different then it is 2(3)(4)(5)(6)= 720.

The question about distinctness doesn't make sense. $1$ has thirty factors $1$, and many more.

Because of that "1" is not usually considered a factor.
