How to compute the divisors of 8105?
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 8105 by each of the numbers from 1 to 8105 to determine which ones have a remainder equal to 0.
(where is the integer part of the quotient)
- 8105 / 1 = 8105 (the remainder is 0, so 1 is a divisor of 8105)
- 8105 / 2 = 4052.5 (the remainder is 1, so 2 is not a divisor of 8105)
- 8105 / 3 = 2701.6666666667 (the remainder is 2, so 3 is not a divisor of 8105)
- ...
- 8105 / 8104 = 1.0001233958539 (the remainder is 1, so 8104 is not a divisor of 8105)
- 8105 / 8105 = 1 (the remainder is 0, so 8105 is a divisor of 8105)
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 8105 (i.e. 90.027773492406). 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 )
- 8105 / 1 = 8105 (the remainder is 0, so 1 and 8105 are divisors of 8105)
- 8105 / 2 = 4052.5 (the remainder is 1, so 2 is not a divisor of 8105)
- 8105 / 3 = 2701.6666666667 (the remainder is 2, so 3 is not a divisor of 8105)
- ...
- 8105 / 89 = 91.067415730337 (the remainder is 6, so 89 is not a divisor of 8105)
- 8105 / 90 = 90.055555555556 (the remainder is 5, so 90 is not a divisor of 8105)
