[seqfan] Re: Numbers with 3 divisors

[Christopher Gribble]

A number with exactly 3 divisors can only be the square of a prime.
Apart from primes 2 and 5, all other primes end in 1, 3, 7 or 9, so their
squares end in 1 or 9.

Best regards,

Chris Gribble

Subject: [seqfan] Numbers with 3 divisors

            Is it true that all numbers with exactly three divisors, with
the exception only of 4 and 25, have either 1 or 9 as their last decimal
digit?

            Best,
