It is also possible to show that if k > and p = k + 1 is prime, [...]

k is greater than what?

formula not correct??

edit

for k=1, S(n)=n, so the equation reads n = 1 + 1 * ( n - n - 1 ) =0. also for k=2, the formula says 21 = 1 + 2 * ( (1+3+7) - 21 - 1) = 1 + 2 * ( 11 - 22 ) which is not 21. 186.139.188.31 (talk) 22:21, 2 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hyperperfect numbers satisfy n = 1 + k(σ(n) − n − 1). In your first line, the first term inside the parentheses is σ(n), not n. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 00:48, 3 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
