Composite Number: 145 is not a prime number; it can be factored into 5×295×29. Divisors: The divisors of 145 are 1, 5, 29, and 145 itself. Deficient Number: The sum of its proper divisors (1 + 5 + 29 = 35) is less than the number itself, categorizing it as a deficient number. Pentagonal Number: It is recognized as a pentagonal number for n=10n=10.

Indeed. Several valid answers. Cfr #693100

We got a winner here... sometimes also referred to as a Peterson Number.

10,000 sats for anyone finding a strong number larger than 531,441...

I wrote a C# program to do some calculations and it's been crunching numbers for a while now. It's up to 174,410,368, but still no luck. I'll let it keep going. 🤠 it's exponential ...

To be fair, if you find a bigger number, don't share it here. You might be able to publish it in a journal... afaik, 531,441 is the largest known strong number.

Some smart tricks are probably required to check large numbers beyond what has been checked up to now...

(I have a stupid python code running too~~ who knows)

Oh fuc*! 30 minutes into processing and still nothing... I'm on loop number 1,458,729,293. Canceled 🤠

2,458,333 2!+4!+5!+8!+3!+3!=2+24+120+40,320+6+6=2,458,333

2+24+120+40,320+6+6=2,458,333

Nice try ;)

what do you mean? Nevermind, you are right. Strongest number you can achieve is 40585.

I don't think your sum is correct...

import math

number = 2458333

sum_of_factorials = sum(math.factorial(int(digit)) for digit in str(number))
print(sum_of_factorials, number == sum_of_factorials)

It's the only number who's prime factorization is 5*29.

Looking forward to the real answer.

Technically correct too. As well as @Satosora's answer above. This reminds me of another math meme... let me try to find it and post it if I do.

I saw it. I agreed with your answer, but didn't have anything clever to add.
