Question

Show that 220 and 284 are amicable numbers.





give me with the explain ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Amicable numbers are two different numbers related in such a way that,

the sum of the proper divisors of each is equal to the other number.

The smallest pair of amicable numbers is (220, 284).

They are amicable because the proper divisors of

220 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 11, 20, 22, 44, 55 and 110,

of which the sum is 284;

and the proper divisors of 284 are 1, 2, 4, 71 and 142,

of which the sum is 220.

(A proper divisor of a number is a positive factor of that number other than the number itself. For example, the proper divisors of 6 are 1, 2, and 3.)
