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).
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. A related concept is that of a largely composite number , a positive integer that has at least as many divisors as all smaller positive integers.
Divisor function d(n) up to n = 250 Prime-power factors In number theory , a superior highly composite number is a natural number which, in a particular rigorous sense, has many divisors . Particularly, it is defined by a ratio between the number of divisors an integer has and that integer raised to some positive power.
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.
More generally, an a-by-b rectangle can be covered with square tiles of side length c only if c is a common divisor of a and b. For example, a 24-by-60 rectangular area can be divided into a grid of: 1-by-1 squares, 2-by-2 squares, 3-by-3 squares, 4-by-4 squares, 6-by-6 squares or 12-by-12 squares.
The divisors of 10 illustrated with Cuisenaire rods: 1, 2, 5, and 10 In mathematics , a divisor of an integer n , {\displaystyle n,} also called a factor of n , {\displaystyle n,} is an integer m {\displaystyle m} that may be multiplied by some integer to produce n . {\displaystyle n.} [ 1 ] In this case, one also says that n {\displaystyle n ...
The first: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24 (sequence A005843 in the OEIS). An odd number does not have the prime factor 2. The first: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23 (sequence A005408 in the OEIS). All integers are either even or odd. A square has even multiplicity for all prime factors (it is of the form a 2 for some a).
All prime numbers are known to be solitary, as are powers of prime numbers. More generally, if the numbers n and σ(n) are coprime – meaning that the greatest common divisor of these numbers is 1, so that σ(n)/n is an irreducible fraction – then the number n is solitary (sequence A014567 in the OEIS).
