How to work it out
- 1
What is special about 515: a palindrome: it reads 515 backwards too; a semiprime: 5 × 103, the product of two primes.
- 2
515 is composite. Its prime factorisation is
- 3
The divisors add up to 624; without 515 itself that is 109, so 515 is deficient (109 is less than 515). Euler's totient φ(515) = 408 numbers up to 515 share no factor with it.
- 4
The digits of 515 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 123 steps to reach 1.
