For example, if the branching factor is 10, then there will be 10 nodes one level down from the current position, 10 2 (or 100) nodes two levels down, 10 3 (or 1,000) nodes three levels down, and so on. The higher the branching factor, the faster this "explosion" occurs. The branching factor can be cut down by a pruning algorithm.
62 is: the eighteenth discrete semiprime ( 2 × 31 {\displaystyle 2\times 31} ) and tenth of the form (2.q), where q is a higher prime. with an aliquot sum of 34 ; itself a semiprime , within an aliquot sequence of seven composite numbers (62, 34 , 20 , 22 , 14 , 10 , 8 , 7 , 1 ,0) to the Prime in the 7 -aliquot tree.
It is the only number in the Mersenne sequence whose prime factors are each factors of at least one previous element of the sequence (3 and 7, respectively the first and second Mersenne primes). [7] In the list of Mersenne numbers, 63 lies between Mersenne primes 31 and 127, with 127 the thirty-first prime number. [5]
lcm(m, n) (least common multiple of m and n) is the product of all prime factors of m or n (with the largest multiplicity for m or n). gcd(m, n) × lcm(m, n) = m × n. Finding the prime factors is often harder than computing gcd and lcm using other algorithms which do not require known prime factorization.
This tree also appeared in papers of A. Hall in 1970 [3] and A. R. Kanga in 1990. [4] In 2008 V. E. Firstov showed generally that only three such trichotomy trees exist and give explicitly a tree similar to Berggren's but starting with initial node (4, 3, 5). [5]
Given an integer n (n refers to "the integer to be factored"), the trial division consists of systematically testing whether n is divisible by any smaller number. Clearly, it is only worthwhile to test candidate factors less than n, and in order from two upwards because an arbitrary n is more likely to be divisible by two than by three, and so on.

65 as the sum of distinct positive squares. 65 is the nineteenth distinct semiprime, [1] (5.13); and the third of the form (5.q), where q is a higher prime. 65 has a prime aliquot sum of 19 within an aliquot sequence of one composite numbers (65,19,1,0) to the prime; as the first member' of the 19-aliquot tree. It is an octagonal number. [2]
