Example of Use of Euler $\phi$ Function
- $\map \phi {164} = 80$
where $\phi$ denotes the Euler $\phi$ Function.
Proof
From Euler Phi Function of Integer:
- $\ds \map \phi n = n \prod_{p \mathop \divides n} \paren {1 - \frac 1 p}$
where $p \divides n$ denotes the primes which divide $n$.
We have that:
- $164 = 2^2 \times 41$
Thus:
\(\ds \map \phi {164}\) | \(=\) | \(\ds 164 \paren {1 - \dfrac 1 2} \paren {1 - \dfrac 1 {41} }\) | ||||||||||||
\(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds 164 \times \frac 1 2 \times \frac {40} {41}\) | ||||||||||||
\(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds 2 \times 1 \times 40\) | ||||||||||||
\(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds 80\) |
