A 24-by-60 rectangle is covered with ten 12-by-12 square tiles, where 12 is the GCD of 24 and 60. 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 .
d() is the number of positive divisors of n, including 1 and n itself; σ() is the sum of the positive divisors of n, including 1 and n itselfs() is the sum of the proper divisors of n, including 1 but not n itself; that is, s(n) = σ(n) − n
A 24×60 rectangular area can be divided into a grid of 12×12 squares, with two squares along one edge (24/12 = 2) and five squares along the other (60/12 = 5). The greatest common divisor of two numbers a and b is the product of the prime factors shared by the two numbers, where each prime factor can be repeated as many times as it divides ...
This representation is commonly extended to all positive integers, including 1, by the convention that the empty product is equal to 1 (the empty product corresponds to k = 0). This representation is called the canonical representation [10] of n, or the standard form [11] [12] of n. For example, 999 = 3 3 ×37, 1000 = 2 3 ×5 3, 1001 = 7×11×13.
The first in decimal: 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30 (sequence A046760 in the OEIS). An economical number has been defined as a frugal number, but also as a number that is either frugal or equidigital.

180 is the sum of two square numbers: 12 2 + 6 2. It can be expressed as either the sum of six consecutive prime numbers: 19 + 23 + 29 + 31 + 37 + 41, or the sum of eight consecutive prime numbers: 11 + 13 + 17 + 19 + 23 + 29 + 31 + 37. 180 is an Ulam number, which can be expressed as a sum of earlier terms in the Ulam sequence only as 177 + 3.

x 2 − 5x − 6 = (12 x + 12) ( 1 / 12 x − 1 / 2 ) + 0 Since 12 x + 12 is the last nonzero remainder, it is a GCD of the original polynomials, and the monic GCD is x + 1 . In this example, it is not difficult to avoid introducing denominators by factoring out 12 before the second step.
