Prime numbers have exactly 2 divisors, and highly composite numbers are in bold. 7 is a divisor of 42 because =, so we can say It can also be said that 42 is divisible by 7, 42 is a multiple of 7, 7 divides 42, or 7 is a factor of 42. The non-trivial divisors of 6 are 2, −2, 3, −3.
A divisor of an integer n is an integer m, for which n/m is again an integer (which is necessarily also a divisor of n). For example, 3 is a divisor of 21, since 21/7 = 3 (and therefore 7 is also a divisor of 21). If m is a divisor of n, then so is −m. The tables below only list positive divisors.
The greatest common divisor (GCD) of integers a and b, at least one of which is nonzero, is the greatest positive integer d such that d is a divisor of both a and b; that is, there are integers e and f such that a = de and b = df, and d is the largest such integer.
Divisor function σ 0 (n) up to n = 250 Sigma function σ 1 (n) up to n = 250 Sum of the squares of divisors, σ 2 (n), up to n = 250 Sum of cubes of divisors, σ 3 (n) up to n = 250. In mathematics, and specifically in number theory, a divisor function is an arithmetic function related to the divisors of an integer.
A positive integer with more divisors than any smaller positive integer. A002182: Superior highly composite numbers: 2, 6, 12, 60, 120, 360, 2520, 5040, 55440, 720720, ... A positive integer n for which there is an e > 0 such that d(n) / n e ≥ d(k) / k e for all k > 1. A002201: Pronic numbers: 0, 2, 6, 12, 20, 30, 42, 56, 72 ...
A highly composite number is a positive integer that has more divisors than all smaller positive integers. If d(n) denotes the number of divisors of a positive integer n, then a positive integer N is highly composite if d(N) > d(n) for all n < N. For example, 6 is highly composite because d(6)=4 and d(n)=1,2,2,3,2 for n=1,2,3,4,5 respectively.
Demonstration, with Cuisenaire rods, of the abundance of the number 12. In number theory, an abundant number or excessive number is a positive integer for which the sum of its proper divisors is greater than the number.
42 is a pronic number, [1] an abundant number [2] as well as a highly abundant number, [3] a practical number, [4] an admirable number, [5] and a Catalan number. [6]The 42-sided tetracontadigon is the largest such regular polygon that can only tile a vertex alongside other regular polygons, without tiling the plane.
