Mistake

 * ''The smallest composite number, the product of whose proper divisors is a cube. $2 \times 3 \times 4 \times 6 \times 8 \times 12 = 24^3$.

Correction
There are smaller such numbers.

For example, the product of the proper divisors of $8$ is $8$ itself, which is a cube:
 * $2 \times 4 = 8 = 2^3$

What it should say is:
 * ''The smallest composite number, the product of whose proper divisors is its cube. $2 \times 3 \times 4 \times 6 \times 8 \times 12 = 24^3$.
