Question
What is the best way of counting the number of multiples of number A that perfectly divides the number B.
This is the sub problem for one of the questions I am solving on codechef. This is the best I could come up with.
int func(int A,int B){
int res = 0;
int i = 1;
while(A * i <= B){
if(!(B %(A * i))){
res++;
}
i++;
}
return res;
}
However,this is timing out for some of the cases. I am told that this can solved in O(sqrt(n)). Any help would be appreciated.
