Quick facts about 555:

• Factorization: 555 = 3 × 5 × 37
• Divisors: 1, 3, 5, 15, 37, 111, 185, 555
• Sum of divisors σ(555) = 912
• Euler totient φ(555) = 288
• 555 is a palindrome and a Harshad number in base 10 (since 555 is divisible by 5+5+5 = 15)
• Not a prime

Three quick practice problems (with answers if you want):

1. Prove divisibility properties: Show that 555 is divisible by 3 and by 5.
   • Answer: 555 = 3 × 185 and 555 = 5 × 111, so divisible by both 3 and 5.
2. List all divisors and verify their sum equals σ(555) = 912.
   • Divisors: 1, 3, 5, 15, 37, 111, 185, 555; sum = 912.
3. Compute Euler’s totient φ(555).
   • φ(555) = 555 × (1 − 1/3) × (1 − 1/5) × (1 − 1/37) = 555 × (2/3) × (4/5) × (36/37) = 288.
