Let d(m) denote the number of positive integer divisors of positive integer m. If is the number of integers ( i ) is odd, find the sum of the digits of r. n 2023 for which i =1
Hint 1: Start by analyzing the initial conditions and setting up the basic equations. => d(1) + d(2) + d(3) + …. + d(n) is odd.
Hint 2: Look for algebraic properties, symmetry, or geometric theorems to simplify. d(square number) = odd.
Hint 3: Proceed with the final algebraic steps to solve the system. for solve for the final value.
Step 1: => d(1) + d(2) + d(3) + …. + d(n) is odd
Step 2: d(square number) = odd
Step 3: for = 1
Step 4: ( i ) = odd
Step 5: For = 3
Step 6: ( i ) = d(1) + d(2) + d(3)
Step 7: odd + even + even = odd
Step 8: => in [1,3]
Step 9: For = 4
Step 10: ( i ) = even as d(4) = odd
Step 11: => in [4, 8] in even
Step 12: => in [1, 3] [9, 15] […
Step 13: [12, 22 – 1] [32, 42 – 1] [52, 62 – 1] … [432, 442 – 1]
Step 14: => Number of element.
Step 15: (22 – 1 – 12 + 1) = 3
Step 16: (42 – 1 – 32 + 1) = 7
Step 17: => (22 – 12) + (42 – 32) + … + (442 – 432)
Step 18: => 3 + 7 + 11 + … 22 terms
Step 19: => 2 \times 3 + ( 22 – 1) 4
Step 20: = 11 × [6 + 84] = 90 × 11
Step 21: => Sum of digits = 18.
Step 22: ❑ ❑ ❑
