Example of Use of Euler $\phi$ Function

$\map \phi {33 \, 817 \, 088} = 16 \, 842 \, 752$

where $\phi$ denotes the Euler $\phi$ Function.


Proof

From Euler Phi Function of Integer:

$\ds \map \phi n = n \prod_{p \mathop \divides n} \paren {1 - \frac 1 p}$

where $p \divides n$ denotes the primes which divide $n$.


We have that:

$33 \, 817 \, 088 = 2^9 \times 257^2$


Thus:

\(\ds \map \phi {33 \, 817 \, 088}\) \(=\) \(\ds 33 \, 817 \, 088 \paren {1 - \dfrac 1 2} \paren {1 - \dfrac 1 {257} }\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 2^9 \times 257^2 \times \frac 1 2 \times \frac {256} {257}\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 2^8 \times 257 \times \frac 1 2 \times 2^8\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 2^{16} \times 257\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 16 \, 842 \, 752\)
