432 ways are there to paint each of the integers 2, 3,..., 9 either red, green, or blue so that each number has a different color from each of its proper divisors.

What is counting principle?

A rule used to count the entire number of alternative outcomes in a circumstance is known as the fundamental counting principle. It claims that if there are n ways to do something and m ways to do something else after that, then there are n m n*m methods to do both of these acts.

Here,

(1) All prime number can take any of three colors, except one of 2 or 3 as both are connected via 6..

so 2, 5, 7 can have 3 ways each - 3*3*3 = 27 ways

(2) Let us take the multiples of 2..

4 can take any of the remaining 2 colors, while 8 would take the remaining colour. As like 4, 6 can also take any of 2 colors other than the colour of integer 2.

Thus 2*2*1=4

3 is restricted because of 6, so it cannot have the same color as 6 and therefore 3 can have any of the remaining 2 colors.

We could also have taken 3 colors for 6, and then 2 and 3 would have 2 colors each and overall 2*2*3.. We are still getting the same

Only integer left is 9, so it will take any of the 2 colors other than that of 3, so 2 ways..

Total 2*2=4

Combined way of  integers = 27∗4∗4=432 ways

There are 432 different methods to paint the numerals 2, 3,..., 9 red, green, or blue so that each number has a different hue from each of its suitable divisors.
