How to work it out
- 1
What is special about 1285: a binary palindrome (10100000101); a happy number: repeatedly adding the squares of its digits reaches 1; a semiprime: 5 × 257, the product of two primes.
- 2
1285 is composite. Its prime factorisation is
- 3
The divisors add up to 1548; without 1285 itself that is 263, so 1285 is deficient (263 is less than 1285). Euler's totient φ(1285) = 1024 numbers up to 1285 share no factor with it.
- 4
The digits of 1285 add up to 16, and repeating that until one digit is left gives the digital root 7. The Collatz sequence (halve if even, else 3n+1) takes 26 steps to reach 1.
