How to compute the divisors of 4313?
A number N is said to be divisible by a number M (with M non-zero) if, when we divide N by M, the remainder of the division is zero.
Brute force algorithm
We could start by using a brute-force method which would involve dividing 4313 by each of the numbers from 1 to 4313 to determine which ones have a remainder equal to 0.
(where is the integer part of the quotient)
- 4313 / 1 = 4313 (the remainder is 0, so 1 is a divisor of 4313)
- 4313 / 2 = 2156.5 (the remainder is 1, so 2 is not a divisor of 4313)
- 4313 / 3 = 1437.6666666667 (the remainder is 2, so 3 is not a divisor of 4313)
- ...
- 4313 / 4312 = 1.0002319109462 (the remainder is 1, so 4312 is not a divisor of 4313)
- 4313 / 4313 = 1 (the remainder is 0, so 4313 is a divisor of 4313)
Improved algorithm using square-root
However, there is another slightly better approach that reduces the number of iterations by testing only integers less than or equal to the square root of 4313 (i.e. 65.673434507417). Indeed, if a number N has a divisor D greater than its square root, then there is necessarily a smaller divisor d such that:
(thus, if , then )
- 4313 / 1 = 4313 (the remainder is 0, so 1 and 4313 are divisors of 4313)
- 4313 / 2 = 2156.5 (the remainder is 1, so 2 is not a divisor of 4313)
- 4313 / 3 = 1437.6666666667 (the remainder is 2, so 3 is not a divisor of 4313)
- ...
- 4313 / 64 = 67.390625 (the remainder is 25, so 64 is not a divisor of 4313)
- 4313 / 65 = 66.353846153846 (the remainder is 23, so 65 is not a divisor of 4313)
