Practice problems (with solutions)
Find the prime factorization and list all divisors
- Answer: 555 = 3 × 5 × 37. Divisors: 1, 3, 5, 15, 37, 111, 185, 555.
Compute Euler’s totient φ(555)
- Approach: φ(n) = n × ∏(1 − 1/p) over distinct primes p|n
- φ(555) = 555 × (2/3) × (4/5) × (36/37) = 288
Convert 555 to binary and hex
- Binary: 1000101011₂
- Hex: 0x22B
If you want, I can tailor more problems to your course (e.g., modular arithmetic, number theory, or base conversions), or walk through any of these steps in more detail. What would you like next?
