This calculator performs the decomposition of a number into its prime factors and lists all its natural divisors. Enter an integer between 1 and 1,000,000.
1) Relation to multiples of 6: Every prime number greater than 3 is always one less or one more than a multiple of 6.
Example: `10883` is 1 less than `10884` (multiple of 6).
2) Square minus 1 divisible by 24: For every prime number greater than 3, if 1 is subtracted from its square, the result is always divisible by 24.
Example: The square of `10883` is `118439689`. Subtracting 1, we get `118439688`. Note that `118439688 ÷ 24 = 4934987`.
3) Difference of squares: Every prime number greater than 2 can be expressed as the difference of the squares of two consecutive natural numbers.
Example: `10883 = 5442^2 - 5441^2 = 29615364 - 29604481`
4) Form `4n+1` or `4n-1`: Except for the number 2, all prime numbers follow the pattern `4n+1` or `4n-1`, where `n` is a natural number.
Example: `10883` is of the form `4n-1`, where `n = 2721`.
