The digit sum of 2946, for example is 2 + 9 + 4 + 6 = 21. Since 21 = 2946 − 325 × 9, the effect of taking the digit sum of 2946 is to "cast out" 325 lots of 9 from it. If the digit 9 is ignored when summing the digits, the effect is to "cast out" one more 9 to give the result 12. More generally, when casting out nines by summing digits, any ...
9 is the sum of the cubes of the first two non-zero positive integers + which makes it the first cube-sum number greater than one. [5] A number that is 4 or 5 modulo 9 cannot be represented as the sum of three cubes. [6]
Digit sums and digital roots can be used for quick divisibility tests: a natural number is divisible by 3 or 9 if and only if its digit sum (or digital root) is divisible by 3 or 9, respectively. For divisibility by 9, this test is called the rule of nines and is the basis of the casting out nines technique for checking calculations. Digit sums ...
The digital root (also repeated digital sum) of a natural number in a given radix is the (single digit) value obtained by an iterative process of summing digits, on each iteration using the result from the previous iteration to compute a digit sum. The process continues until a single-digit number is reached.
The sum of the ones digit, double the tens digit, and four times the hundreds digit is divisible by 8. 34,152: 4 × 1 + 5 × 2 + 2 = 16. 9: The sum of the digits must be divisible by 9. [2] [4] [5] 2,880: 2 + 8 + 8 + 0 = 18: 1 + 8 = 9. Subtracting 8 times the last digit from the rest gives a multiple of 9. (Works because 81 is divisible by 9)
The digit sum - add the digits of the representation of a number in a given base. For example, considering 84001 in base 10 the digit sum would be 8 + 4 + 0 + 0 + 1 = 13. The digital root - repeatedly apply the digit sum operation to the representation of a number in a given base until the outcome is a single digit. For example, considering ...
A Nivenmorphic number or harshadmorphic number for a given number base is an integer t such that there exists some harshad number N whose digit sum is t, and t, written in that base, terminates N written in the same base. For example, 18 is a Nivenmorphic number for base 10: 16218 is a harshad number 16218 has 18 as digit sum 18 terminates 16218
In number theory, a narcissistic number [1] [2] (also known as a pluperfect digital invariant (PPDI), [3] an Armstrong number [4] (after Michael F. Armstrong) [5] or a plus perfect number) [6] in a given number base is a number that is the sum of its own digits each raised to the power of the number of digits.
