Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the number 36.

Canonical Form (expressed in prime numbers): (2^2)*(3^2)

Expressed as factor pairs:

(Note that every factor-pairs together can be expressed in canonical form as follows, because their product is nothing else but the number itself)

Observe carefully!

1*36 = (2^0)*(3^0) * (2^2)*(3^2)

2*18 = (2^1)*(3^0) * (2^1)*(3^2)

3*12 = (2^0)*(3^1) * (2^2)*(3^1)

4*9 = (2^2)*(3^0) * (2^0)*(3^2)

6*6 = (2^1)*(3^1) * (2^1)*(3^1)

Now, our focus is in finding the sum of factors of 36, which is 1+2+3+4+6+9+12+18+36 = 91

This implies:

Sum of factors of 36 =

(2^0)*(3^0) + (2^1)*(3^0) + (2^0)*(3^1) +

(2^2)*(3^0) + (2^1)*(3^1) + (2^0)*(3^2) +

(2^2)*(3^1) + (2^1)*(3^2) + (2^2)*(3^2)

which is equal to

(2^0 + 2^1 + 2^2) * (3^0 + 3^1 + 3^2)

Thus, we can conclude that the sum of factors of a natural number can be expressed based on its canonical form.

i.e, if Canonical form = (2^2)*(3^2), then

Sum of factors =(2^0 + 2^1 + 2^2)*(3^0 + 3^1+3^2)

Mathematics is fun!

Hope this helps!

Given : N is a perfect number.

To Find : The ratio of the sum of the factor of N and N

Solution:

A Perfect Number   is a positive integer which is equal to the sum of its Proper divisors/factors.

Perfect number is a number that is sum of all of its positive divisors ( excluding itself )

Perfect number is a number that is half the sum of all of its positive divisors ( including itself )

N is a perfect number

Sum of the factor of N  = N + N  = 2N

ratio of the sum of the factor of N and N   = 2N/N = 2

for example 6 is a perfect number  

proper divisors 1 , 2 , 3

Sum =  1 + 2 + 3 = 6 = Number

Factors 1 , 2 , 3 , 6

Sum of Factors = 1 + 2  + 3 + 6 = 12

12/6  = 2
