Problem Statement

Let JJ , EE, RR, and YY be four positive integers chosen independently and uniformly at random from the set of factors of 14281428. What is the probability that JERRY=1428JERRY = 1428? Express your answer in the form ab2n\frac{a}{b\cdot 2^n} where nn is a nonnegative integer, aa and bb are odd, and gcd (a,b)=1(a,b) = 1.
