Algebra Practice #2


x2424+8311\frac{x^{24}}{24}+8 \cdot 3^{11} can be written as kA(x)B(x)C(x)D(x)k \cdot A(x) \cdot B(x) \cdot C(x) \cdot D(x), where kk is a rational number and A(x),B(x),C(x)A(x), B(x), C(x) and D(x)D(x) are non-constant polynomials with rational coefficients. Find the number of terms (including kk) in the new form.

For example, the polynomial 463(x2+4x+3)(x+2)(x6+4x5)(9x3+5)\frac{4}{63} \cdot (x^2+4x+3) \cdot (x+2) \cdot (x^6+4x^5) \cdot (9x^3+5) would have 1010 terms.
