    1) The sum of the odd square numbers less than 100 are all odd while the factor sums of non-square odd numbers are also always odd.

    2) The sum of the even square numbers less than 100 are always odd while the sum of of non-square even numbers are not always odd.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The odd square numbers are:

    9,49,81

    The factors are:

    9={1,3,9}

    Sum of factors of 9:1+3+9=13

    The factors of 49 are:

    49={1,7,49}

    Sum of factors of 49 : 1+7+49=57

    The factors of 81 are: {1,3,9,27,81}

    Their sum:1+3+9+27+81=121

    The non-square even numbers are:

    2,6,8,10,12,14, ...

    Factors of 2:{1,2}

    Sum of factors:1+2=3

    Factors of 6: {1,2,3,6}

    Sum of factors:1+2+3+6=12

    Factors of 8: {1,2,4,8}

    Sum: 1+2+4+8=15

    Factors of 10:{1,2,5,10}

    Sum: 1+2+5+10=18

    Factors of 12:{1,2,3,4,6,12}

    Sum:1+2+3+4+6+12=28

    Factors of 14: {1,2,7,14}

    Sum:1+2+7+14=24

    Even square numbers less than 100 are:

    4,16,36,64

    Factors of 4={1,2,4}

    Sum:1+2+4=7

    Factors of 16: {1,2,4,8,16}

    Sum : 1+2+4+8+16=31

    Factors of 36: {1,2,3,4,6,9,12,18,36}

    Sum : 1+2+3+4+6+9+12+18+36=91

    The non-square odd numbers are:

    3,5,7,11, ...

    Factors of 3:{1,3}

    Sum : 1+3=4

    Factors of 5: {1,5}

    Sum: 1+5=6

    Factors of 7:{1,7}

    Sum of factors: 1+7=8

    Factors of 15: {1,3,5,15}

    Sum: 1+3+5+15=24

    Factors of 21:{1,3,7,21}

    Sum: 1+3+7+21=32

    Factors of 27: {1,3,9,27}

    Sum: 1+3+9+27=40
