Is prime number an abundant number or deficient number?

All prime numbers are going to be deficient, because remember that a prime number's only factors are one and itself. To find if its deficient or abundant, you'd add up all of its factors, excluding itself. If its only other factor beside itself is one, that's obviously less than the number, and therefore it will be deficient.

Is 34 an abundant perfect or a deficient number?

To find out if a number is abundant, perfect or deficient, you first need to split it into its prime factors: 34 = 2x17 The next step would be to find any combinations, but as we have only 2 prime factors, those are the two we'll work with. You add these together, with 1, and get 20. When this sums to less than the original number it's a deficient number. 20 is less than 34, and so 34 is a deficient number.
