  2. Euler's totient function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_totient_function

    The first thousand values of φ(n).The points on the top line represent φ(p) when p is a prime number, which is p − 1. [1]In number theory, Euler's totient function counts the positive integers up to a given integer n that are relatively prime to n.

  3. Multiple (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    14, 49, −21 and 0 are multiples of 7, whereas 3 and −6 are not. This is because there are integers that 7 may be multiplied by to reach the values of 14, 49, 0 and −21, while there are no such integers for 3 and −6.

  4. 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.

  5. Sieve of Pritchard - Wikipedia

    The first number after 1 for wheel 2 is 5; note it as a prime. Now form wheel 3 with length 5 × 6 = 30 by first extending wheel 2 up to 30 and then deleting 5 times each number in wheel 2 (in reverse order!), to get 1 2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 25 29. The first number after 1 for wheel 3 is 7; note it as a prime.

    Perfect matchings may be described in several other equivalent ways, including involutions without fixed points on a set of n + 1 items (permutations in which each cycle is a pair) [1] or chord diagrams (sets of chords of a set of n + 1 points evenly spaced on a circle such that each point is the endpoint of exactly one chord, also called ...

  7. Modulo (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Modulo is a mathematical jargon that was introduced into mathematics in the book Disquisitiones Arithmeticae by Carl Friedrich Gauss in 1801. [3] Given the integers a, b and n, the expression "a ≡ b (mod n)", pronounced "a is congruent to b modulo n", means that a − b is an integer multiple of n, or equivalently, a and b both share the same remainder when divided by n.

  8. Multiset - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiset

    In mathematics, a multiset (or bag, or mset) is a modification of the concept of a set that, unlike a set, [1] allows for multiple instances for each of its elements.The number of instances given for each element is called the multiplicity of that element in the multiset.

    Like Example 1, the corresponding bones to the biggest number are placed in the board. For this example, bones 6, 7, 8, and 5 were placed in the proper order as shown below. First step of solving 6785 × 8. In the first column, the number by which the biggest number is multiplied by is located. In this example, the number was 8.
