Example of Divisor Sum of Integer

$\map {\sigma_1} {52} = 98$

where $\sigma_1$ denotes the divisor sum function.


Proof

We have that:

$52 = 2^2 \times 13$


Hence:

\(\ds \map {\sigma_1} {52}\) \(=\) \(\ds \frac {2^3 - 1} {2 - 1} \times \frac {13^2 - 1} {13 - 1}\) Divisor Sum of Integer
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds \frac {8 - 1} 1 \times \frac {169 - 1} {12}\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 7 \times 14\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 7 \times \paren {2 \times 7}\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 2 \times 7^2\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 98\)
