How to compute the divisors of 6133?
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 6133 by each of the numbers from 1 to 6133 to determine which ones have a remainder equal to 0.
(where is the integer part of the quotient)
- 6133 / 1 = 6133 (the remainder is 0, so 1 is a divisor of 6133)
- 6133 / 2 = 3066.5 (the remainder is 1, so 2 is not a divisor of 6133)
- 6133 / 3 = 2044.3333333333 (the remainder is 1, so 3 is not a divisor of 6133)
- ...
- 6133 / 6132 = 1.0001630789302 (the remainder is 1, so 6132 is not a divisor of 6133)
- 6133 / 6133 = 1 (the remainder is 0, so 6133 is a divisor of 6133)
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 6133 (i.e. 78.313472659562). 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 )
- 6133 / 1 = 6133 (the remainder is 0, so 1 and 6133 are divisors of 6133)
- 6133 / 2 = 3066.5 (the remainder is 1, so 2 is not a divisor of 6133)
- 6133 / 3 = 2044.3333333333 (the remainder is 1, so 3 is not a divisor of 6133)
- ...
- 6133 / 77 = 79.649350649351 (the remainder is 50, so 77 is not a divisor of 6133)
- 6133 / 78 = 78.628205128205 (the remainder is 49, so 78 is not a divisor of 6133)
