  2. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    156: it is divisible by 2 and by 13. Subtracting 5 times the last digit from 2 times the rest of the number gives a multiple of 26. (Works because 52 is divisible by 26.) 1,248 : (124 × 2) − (8 × 5) = 208 = 26 × 8. 27: Sum the digits in blocks of three from right to left. (Works because 999 is divisible by 27.) 2,644,272: 2 + 644 + 272 = 918.

  3. Least common multiple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_common_multiple

    A multiple of a number is the product of that number and an integer. For example, 10 is a multiple of 5 because 5 × 2 = 10, so 10 is divisible by 5 and 2. Because 10 is the smallest positive integer that is divisible by both 5 and 2, it is the least common multiple of 5 and 2.

  4. Abundant number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abundant_number

    An abundant number whose abundance is greater than any lower number is called a highly abundant number, and one whose relative abundance (i.e. s(n)/n ) is greater than any lower number is called a superabundant number; Every integer greater than 20161 can be written as the sum of two abundant numbers. The largest even number that is not the sum ...

  5. Multiple (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, a multiple is the product of any quantity and an integer. [1] In other words, for the quantities a and b, it can be said that b is a multiple of a if b = na for some integer n, which is called the multiplier. If a is not zero, this is equivalent to saying that / is an integer.

  6. Harshad number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harshad_number

    The number 19 is not a harshad number in base 10, because the sum of the digits 1 and 9 is 10, and 19 is not divisible by 10. In base 10, every natural number expressible in the form 9R n a n, where the number R n consists of n copies of the single digit 1, n > 0, and a n is a positive integer less than 10 n and multiple of n, is a harshad ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waring's_problem

    G(3) is at least 4 (since cubes are congruent to 0, 1 or −1 mod 9); for numbers less than 1.3 × 10 9, 1 290 740 is the last to require 6 cubes, and the number of numbers between N and 2N requiring 5 cubes drops off with increasing N at sufficient speed to have people believe that G(3) = 4; [22] the largest number now known not to be a sum of ...

  9. Multiset - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiset

    As a consequence, an infinite number of multisets exist that contain only elements a and b, but vary in the multiplicities of their elements: The set {a, b} contains only elements a and b, each having multiplicity 1 when {a, b} is seen as a multiset. In the multiset {a, a, b}, the element a has multiplicity 2, and b has multiplicity 1.
