Given an array A[] and positive integer K, the task is to count the total number of pairs in the array whose product is divisible by K

Examples :

Input: A[] = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], K = 2
Output: 7
Explanation: The 7 pairs of indices whose corresponding products are divisible by 2 are
(0, 1), (0, 3), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (2, 3), and (3, 4).
Other pairs such as (0, 2) and (2, 4) have products 3 and 15 respectively, which are not divisible by 2. 

Input: A[] = [1, 2, 3, 4], K = 5
Output: 0
Explanation: There does not exist any pair of indices whose corresponding product is divisible by 5.

 

Naive approach: For finding the counts of all pairs we can  simply do a nested loop iteration and for each of element we can check all remaining elements whether their product is divisible by given key or not.

Algorithm:

  1.    Initialize a counter variable count to 0.
  2.    Loop i from 0 to N-1
    1. Loop j from i+1 to N-1
         i. If A[i]*A[j] is divisible by K, then increment count by 1.
         
  3.    Return count as the final result.

Below is the implementation of the approach:

C++




// C++ code for the approach
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to count the number of pairs in the array
// whose product is divisible by K
int countPairs(int arr[], int n, int k)
{
    int count = 0;
 
    // Loop to iterate through all pairs of elements in the array
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        for (int j = i + 1; j < n; j++) {
            // Check if the product of elements is divisible by K
            if ((arr[i] * arr[j]) % k == 0) {
                count++;
            }
        }
    }
 
    return count;
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int arr[] = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
    int k = 2;
 
    // Call the function to count the number of pairs
    int count = countPairs(arr, n, k);
 
    // Print the count of pairs
    cout << count << endl;
 
    return 0;
}


Java




import java.util.*;
 
public class Main {
    // Function to count the number of pairs in the array
    // whose product is divisible by K
    static int countPairs(int[] arr, int n, int k) {
        int count = 0;
 
        // Loop to iterate through all pairs of elements in the array
        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
            for (int j = i + 1; j < n; j++) {
                // Check if the product of elements is divisible by K
                if ((arr[i] * arr[j]) % k == 0) {
                    count++;
                }
            }
        }
 
        return count;
    }
 
    // Driver code
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int[] arr = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
        int n = arr.length;
        int k = 2;
 
        // Call the function to count the number of pairs
        int count = countPairs(arr, n, k);
 
        // Print the count of pairs
        System.out.println(count);
    }
}

Time Complexity:  O(N2
Auxiliary Space: O(1)

Efficient approach: The problem can be solved efficiently using hashing based on the following observation:

  • For checking the divisibility of product with K, better to deal with the GCD of number with K. This will remove all other factors from consideration. As, the number of divisors of K, would be very small when compared with the length of original array size.
  • If GCD(a, K) * GCD(b, K) is divisible by key, then a * b should also be divisible by key.

Follow the steps mentioned below to solve the problem:

  • Create a map which will store the GCD(A[i], K) as key and its occurrence as value.
  • For each element of the array, check all elements of map, whether map’s element is divisible by X (X =  quotient when K is divide by GCD(A[i], K))
    •  if yes add the occurrence of that element from map to answer. 
    • Also, keep incrementing the occurrence for each element’s GCD with key.
  • Return the final count.
