Show numerical properties of 8

We start by listing out divisors for 8

DivisorDivisor Math
18 ÷ 1 = 8
28 ÷ 2 = 4
48 ÷ 4 = 2
Positive or Negative Number Test:
Positive Numbers > 0

Since 8 ≥ 0 and it is an integer
8 is a positive number

Whole Number Test:
Positive numbers including 0
with no decimal or fractions

Since 8 ≥ 0 and it is an integer
8 is a whole number

Prime or Composite Test:

Since 8 has divisors other than 1 and itself
it is a composite number

Perfect/Deficient/Abundant Test:

Calculate divisor sum D

If D = N, then it's perfect

If D > N, then it's abundant

If D < N, then it's deficient

Divisor Sum = 1 + 2 + 4

Divisor Sum = 7

Since our divisor sum of 7 < 8
8 is a deficient number!

Odd or Even Test (Parity Function):

A number is even if it is divisible by 2
If not divisible by 2, it is odd

4  =  8
  2

Since 4 is an integer, 8 is divisible by 2
it is an even number

This can be written as A(8) = Even

Evil or Odious Test:

Get binary expansion

If binary has even amount 1's, then it's evil

If binary has odd amount 1's, then it's odious

8 to binary = 1000

There are 1 1's, 8 is an odious number

Triangular Test:

Can you stack numbers in a pyramid?
Each row above has one item less than the row before it

Using a bottom row of 4 items, we cannot form a pyramid
8 is not triangular

Is there an integer m such that n = m(m + 1)

No integer m exists such that m(m + 1) = 8
8 is not rectangular

Automorphic (Curious) Test:

Does n2 ends with n

82 = 8 x 8 = 64

Since 64 does not end with 8
it is not automorphic (curious)

Undulating Test:

Do the digits of n alternate in the form abab

Since 8 < 100
We only perform the test on numbers > 99

Square Test:

Is there a number m such that m2 = n?

22 = 4 and 32 = 9 which do not equal 8

Therefore, 8 is not a square

Cube Test:

Is there a number m such that m3 = n

23 = 8

Since 8 is the cube of 2
8 is a cube

Palindrome Test:

Is the number read backwards equal to the number?

The number read backwards is 8

Since 8 is the same backwards and forwards
it is a palindrome

Palindromic Prime Test:

Is it both prime and a palindrome

From above, since 8 is not both prime and a palindrome
it is NOT a palindromic prime

Repunit Test:

A number is repunit if every digit is equal to 1

Since there is at least one digit in 8 ≠ 1
then it is NOT repunit

Apocalyptic Power Test:

Does 2n contain the consecutive digits 666?

28 = 256

Since 28 does not have 666
8 is NOT an apocalyptic power

Pentagonal Test:

It satisfies the form:

n(3n - 1)
2

Check values of 2 and 3
Using n = 3, we have:
3(3(3 - 1)
2



12 ← Since this does not equal 8
this is NOT a pentagonal number

Using n = 2, we have:
2(3(2 - 1)
2



5 ← Since this does not equal 8
this is NOT a pentagonal number

Hexagonal Test:

Is there an integer m such that n = m(2m - 1)

No integer m exists such that m(2m - 1) = 8
Therefore 8 is not hexagonal

Heptagonal Test:

Is there an integer m such that:

m  =  n(5n - 3)
  2

No integer m exists such that m(5m - 3)/2 = 8
Therefore 8 is not heptagonal

Octagonal Test:

Is there an integer m such that n = m(3m - 3)

The integer m = 2 is octagonal
Since 2(3(2) - 2) = 8

Octagonal number:

Nonagonal Test:

Is there an integer m such that:

m  =  n(7n - 5)
  2

No integer m exists such that m(7m - 5)/2 = 8
Therefore 8 is not nonagonal

Nonagonal number:

Tetrahedral (Pyramidal) Test:

Tetrahederal numbers satisfy the form:

n(n + 1)(n + 2)
6

Check values of 2 and 3
Using n = 3, we have:
3(3 + 1)(3 + 2)
6


10 ← Since this does not equal 8
This is NOT a tetrahedral (Pyramidal) number

Using n = 2, we have:
2(2 + 1)(2 + 2)
6


4 ← Since this does not equal 8
This is NOT a tetrahedral (Pyramidal) number

Narcissistic (Plus Perfect) Test:

Is equal to the square sum of it's m-th powers of its digits

8 is a 1 digit number, so m = 1

Square sum of digitsm = 81

Square sum of digitsm = 8

Square sum of digitsm = 8

Since 8 = 8
8 is narcissistic (plus perfect)

Catalan Test:
Cn  =  2n!
  (n + 1)!n!

Check values of 3 and 4
Using n = 4, we have:
C4  =  (2 x 4)!
  4!(4 + 1)!

Using our factorial lesson

C4  =  8!
  4!5!

C4  =  40320
  (24)(120)

C4  =  40320
  2880

C4 = 14

Since this does not equal 8
This is NOT a Catalan number

Using n = 3, we have:
C3  =  (2 x 3)!
  3!(3 + 1)!

Using our factorial lesson

C3  =  6!
  3!4!

C3  =  720
  (6)(24)

C3  =  720
  144

C3 = 5

Since this does not equal 8
This is NOT a Catalan number
