Problem 5:
How many regular polygons can be constructed from the vertices of a regular polygon with $2010$ sides? (Assume that the vertices of the $2010$-gon are indistinguishable)

isn't it $14$ ?

$2010$ has $14$ divisors$ < 1005$
$\frac{1}{0}$

I second Nadim ul abrar, I think the answer should be 14.
@Labib.
2010 has 16 divisors out of which there will be no polygons with side 1 or 2, So i think the answer is 14.
