Factor distribution in a school (Posted on 2019-11-13)

In a school, each student is assigned a positive factor of 60⁶⁰, but no student's number is the greatest common divisor of any two student numbers (one of which may be their own).

What is the maximum number of students in this school?

Doing 2009 steps, starting with zero and multiplying by 100 and adding 23, mod 999, gets the same result: 991

DefDbl A-Z

Dim crlf$

Private Sub Form_Load()

Text1.Text = ""

crlf$ = Chr(13) + Chr(10)

Form1.Visible = True

8 ball pool

v = 0

For i = 1 To 2009

v = v * 100 + 23

v = v Mod 999

DoEvents

Text1.Text = Text1.Text & v & " done"

DoEvents

End Sub
