How to work it out
- 1
What is special about 263: the 56th prime number; a happy number: repeatedly adding the squares of its digits reaches 1.
- 2
263 is prime, so its only factors are 1 and 263. It is the 56th prime; the next prime is 269 and the one before is 257.
- 3
The divisors add up to 264; without 263 itself that is 1, so 263 is deficient (1 is less than 263). Euler's totient φ(263) = 262 numbers up to 263 share no factor with it.
- 4
The digits of 263 add up to 11, and repeating that until one digit is left gives the digital root 2. The Collatz sequence (halve if even, else 3n+1) takes 78 steps to reach 1.
