What is special about 525: a palindrome: it reads 525 backwards too.
- 2
525 is composite. Its prime factorisation is
- 3
The divisors add up to 992; without 525 itself that is 467, so 525 is deficient (467 is less than 525). Euler's totient φ(525) = 240 numbers up to 525 share no factor with it.
- 4
The digits of 525 add up to 12, and repeating that until one digit is left gives the digital root 3. The Collatz sequence (halve if even, else 3n+1) takes 30 steps to reach 1.
