How to work it out
- 1
What is special about 655: a happy number: repeatedly adding the squares of its digits reaches 1; a semiprime: 5 × 131, the product of two primes.
- 2
655 is composite. Its prime factorisation is
- 3
The divisors add up to 792; without 655 itself that is 137, so 655 is deficient (137 is less than 655). Euler's totient φ(655) = 520 numbers up to 655 share no factor with it.
- 4
The digits of 655 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 144 steps to reach 1.
