Example of Euler $\phi$ Function of Non-Square Semiprime

$\phi \left({1257}\right) = 836$

where $\phi$ denotes the Euler $\phi$ Function.


Proof

We have that:

$1257 = 3 \times 419$


Thus:

\(\ds \phi \left({1257}\right)\) \(=\) \(\ds \left({3 - 1}\right) \left({419 - 1}\right)\) Euler $\phi$ Function of Non-Square Semiprime
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 2 \times 418\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 2 \times \left({2 \times 11 \times 19}\right)\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 836\)
