How to work it out
- 1
What is special about 69: a semiprime: 3 × 23, the product of two primes.
- 2
69 is composite. Its prime factorisation is
- 3
The divisors add up to 96; without 69 itself that is 27, so 69 is deficient (27 is less than 69). Euler's totient φ(69) = 44 numbers up to 69 share no factor with it.
- 4
The digits of 69 add up to 15, and repeating that until one digit is left gives the digital root 6. The Collatz sequence (halve if even, else 3n+1) takes 14 steps to reach 1.
