The tables below list all of the divisors of the numbers 1 to 1000. 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).
The number of ways to choose 3 out of 8 objects or 5 out of 8 objects, if order does not matter. The sum of six consecutive primes (3 + 5 + 7 + 11 + 13 + 17) a tetranacci number [2] and as a multiple of 7 and 8, a pronic number. [3] Interestingly it is one of a few pronic numbers whose digits in decimal also are successive (5 and 6).
In number theory, a deficient number or defective number is a positive integer n for which the sum of divisors of n is less than 2n. Equivalently, it is a number for which the sum of proper divisors (or aliquot sum) is less than n. For example, the proper divisors of 8 are 1, 2, and 4, and their sum is less than 8, so 8 is deficient.
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.
The numbers that these two lists have in common are the common divisors of 54 and 24, that is, ,,, Of these, the greatest is 6, so it is the greatest common divisor: (,) = Computing all divisors of the two numbers in this way is usually not efficient, especially for large numbers that have many divisors.
In number theory, the aliquot sum s(n) of a positive integer n is the sum of all proper divisors of n, that is, all divisors of n other than n itself. That is, = |,. It can be used to characterize the prime numbers, perfect numbers, sociable numbers, deficient numbers, abundant numbers, and untouchable numbers, and to define the aliquot sequence of a number.
Long division is the standard algorithm used for pen-and-paper division of multi-digit numbers expressed in decimal notation. It shifts gradually from the left to the right end of the dividend, subtracting the largest possible multiple of the divisor (at the digit level) at each stage; the multiples then become the digits of the quotient, and the final difference is then the remainder.
A harmonic divisor number is a positive integer whose divisors have a harmonic mean that is an integer. The first five of these are 1, 6, 28, 140, and 270. It is not known whether any harmonic divisor numbers (besides 1) are odd, but there are no odd ones less than 10 24. The sum of the reciprocals of the divisors of a perfect number is 2.
