They really are not
Prime numbers have two factors. The sum of their proper divisors is always 1.
Perfect numbers have the form 2n-1(2n-1) where 2n-1 is a Mersenne prime. When a new Mersenne prime is discovered, so is a new perfect number.
No, all prime numbers are deficient.
Any number squared except 0 is a perfect square so it follows that prime numbers are less common than perfect squares.
No because technically its different .
Just 1.
When two numbers are relatively prime, the LCM will be their product.
You might be thinking of relatively prime numbers. Two numbers are considered relatively prime if their GCF is 1. 4 and 9 are relatively prime.
Prime numbers are related with composite numbers as they are both natural numbers and real numbers and also every composite number is a product of prime numbers due to which they are related with each other.For example 24=[2] [2] [3] [2].Here 24 is a composite number,real number and natural number and 2,2,3,2 are prime numbers and also they are real and natural numbers
Prime factors are factors that are also prime numbers.
Perfect numbers cannot be prime numbers. Here's why:A number N is perfect if σ(N) = 2N (σ is the sum of divisors function). If there is a prime p that is a perfect number, then σ(p) = 2p. However, the only factors of p are 1 and p, so σ(p) is also equal to p+1. If 2p = p+1, then p=1, which is not prime, and 1 is defined to have only one factor, 1.
A [perfect] square number, by definition, has a factor which is its square root. As a result it CANNOT be a prime!
