A "perfect number" is defined to be a number such that all of its factors - smaller than the number itself - add up to the number. Examples:
6 = 1 + 2 + 3
28 = 1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14
11 is not equal to its only factor (smaller than itself), the number 1.
A perfect number cannot be a prime.
Yes, the only factors of 11 are 1 and 11.It is prime.
11 + 12 + 9 = 32
It's a Prime number
no, but I don't know why. One is not a prime number and by definition of a perfect number one must be a prime number.
11 is a prime number. Its only prime factor is 11.
11 is prime.
11 is a prime number.
By the fact that it is a PRIME Number, it does NOT factorise, except for itself and '1'. They named prime numbers because they do factorise. NB Except for '2' all prime numbers are odd numbers. However, NOT all odd numbers are prime number. Odd numbers ending in 1,3,7,& 9. can be prime numbers. Odd numbers ending in '5' are NOT prime number So to test for a prime number. If it is EVEN , ending in 0,2,4,6,8 , it is NOT a Prime Number. It is ends in '5' it is NOT a prime Number. If the digits sum to '9' it is NOT a Prime Number. e.g. 531 ; 5 + 3 + 1 = 9 So 531/ 9 = 59 So it is NOT a Prime number. Then divide the given number by '3' or '7', if there isa remainder then it is a prime number. So 1253 Try '3' = 417 remainder '2' Try '7' =179 So 1253 is NOT a prime number.
The next perfect number after 11 is 28.
33 is not as it is divisible by 3 and 11 1 is because the only thing 1 is divisible by is itself, making it the only prime number to be a perfect square.
No, it is not.Incidentally, is a number p is prime then its 2 factors are 1 and p. Their sum is p+1.If p is a perfect number then this sum must be 2p.That is, p+1 = 2p or p = 1.But 1 is not a prime. So no prime can be a perfect number and since 13 is prime, it cannot be a perfect number.
