  2. Euclidean algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_algorithm

    For example, since 1386 can be factored into 2 × 3 × 3 × 7 × 11, and 3213 can be factored into 3 × 3 × 3 × 7 × 17, the GCD of 1386 and 3213 equals 63 = 3 × 3 × 7, the product of their shared prime factors (with 3 repeated since 3 × 3 divides both). If two numbers have no common prime factors, their GCD is 1 (obtained here as an ...

  3. Greatest common divisor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greatest_common_divisor

    The elements 2 and 1 + √ −3 are two maximal common divisors (that is, any common divisor which is a multiple of 2 is associated to 2, the same holds for 1 + √ −3, but they are not associated, so there is no greatest common divisor of a and b.

  4. Coprime integers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coprime_integers

    [3] A fast way to determine whether two numbers are coprime is given by the Euclidean algorithm and its faster variants such as binary GCD algorithm or Lehmer's GCD algorithm. The number of integers coprime with a positive integer n, between 1 and n, is given by Euler's totient function, also known as Euler's phi function, φ(n).

  5. Least common multiple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_common_multiple

    Least common multiple = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5 = 720 Greatest common divisor = 2 × 2 × 3 = 12 Product = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5 = 8640. This also works for the greatest common divisor (gcd), except that instead of multiplying all of the numbers in the Venn diagram, one multiplies only the prime factors that are ...

  6. Hypercomplex number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercomplex_number

    any two-dimensional subalgebra generated by an element e 0 of A such that e 0 2 = −1 is isomorphic to (algebra of complex numbers), any two-dimensional subalgebra generated by an element e 0 of A such that e 0 2 = 1 is isomorphic to 2 (pairs of real numbers with component-wise product, isomorphic to the algebra of split-complex numbers),

  7. Generation of primes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_of_primes

    A prime sieve works by creating a list of all integers up to a desired limit and progressively removing composite numbers (which it directly generates) until only primes are left. This is the most efficient way to obtain a large range of primes; however, to find individual primes, direct primality tests are more efficient [citation needed].

  8. Highly composite number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highly_composite_number

    the k given prime numbers p i must be precisely the first k prime numbers (2, 3, 5, ...); if not, we could replace one of the given primes by a smaller prime, and thus obtain a smaller number than n with the same number of divisors (for instance 10 = 2 × 5 may be replaced with 6 = 2 × 3; both have four divisors);

  9. List of chemistry mnemonics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemistry_mnemonics

    A mnemonic is a memory aid used to improve long-term memory and make the process of consolidation easier. Many chemistry aspects, rules, names of compounds, sequences of elements, their reactivity, etc., can be easily and efficiently memorized with the help of mnemonics.
