a) 900

The numbers that he likes are the product of a number times itself.

20 x 20 = 400
10 x 10 = 100
60 x 60= 3600

30 x 30 = 900

You are as dumb as an Avs fan.

300 and 3700 are divisible by 4

Not to pull a Will Hunting on you but....
All the numbers John likes have perfect whole square roots. 400=20x20, 100=10x10 - 3600=60x60.

900 is the answer 30x30

all the other options do not have whole sq roots.
