I've made several posts over the years concerning numbers and their associated abundancy. The abundancy of a number \(n\) is defined as:$$ \frac{\sigma_1(n)}{n} $$The abundancy of a number is sometimes referred to as its abundancy index. The number associated with my diurnal age today, 27280, is a member of OEIS A349687:
A349687 | Numbers whose numerator and denominator of their abundancy index are both Fibonacci numbers. |
The initial members of the sequence are (permalink):
1, 2, 6, 15, 24, 26, 28, 84, 90, 96, 120, 270, 330, 496, 672, 1335, 1488, 1540, 1638, 8128, 24384, 27280, 44109, 68200, 131040, 447040, 523776, 18506880, 22256640, 33550336, 36197280, 38257095, 65688320, 91963648, 95472000, 100651008, 102136320, 176432256, 197308800
The initial Fibonacci numbers are as follows:
0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, 1597, 2584, 4181, 6765, 10946, 17711, 28657
In the case of 27280 we have:$$ \begin{align} \frac{\sigma_1(27280)}{27280} &= \frac{71424}{27280}\\ &= \frac{144}{55} \end{align} $$We find that two earlier members of the OEIS sequence, 330 and 1540, have this same abundancy as do two later members, 68200 and 447040. I only checked up to one million so there will be many more numbers with the same abundancy as 27280. Numbers with the same abundancy are called friendly numbers. These number properties are base independent.
A variation on the above would be use the set of square numbers instead of the Fibonacci numbers. Up to 40,000, the square numbers are:
1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, 121, 144, 169, 196, 225, 256, 289, 324, 361, 400, 441, 484, 529, 576, 625, 676, 729, 784, 841, 900, 961, 1024, 1089, 1156, 1225, 1296, 1369, 1444, 1521, 1600, 1681, 1764, 1849, 1936, 2025, 2116, 2209, 2304, 2401, 2500, 2601, 2704, 2809, 2916, 3025, 3136, 3249, 3364, 3481, 3600, 3721, 3844, 3969, 4096, 4225, 4356, 4489, 4624, 4761, 4900, 5041, 5184, 5329, 5476, 5625, 5776, 5929, 6084, 6241, 6400, 6561, 6724, 6889, 7056, 7225, 7396, 7569, 7744, 7921, 8100, 8281, 8464, 8649, 8836, 9025, 9216, 9409, 9604, 9801, 10000, 10201, 10404, 10609, 10816, 11025, 11236, 11449, 11664, 11881, 12100, 12321, 12544, 12769, 12996, 13225, 13456, 13689, 13924, 14161, 14400, 14641, 14884, 15129, 15376, 15625, 15876, 16129, 16384, 16641, 16900, 17161, 17424, 17689, 17956, 18225, 18496, 18769, 19044, 19321, 19600, 19881, 20164, 20449, 20736, 21025, 21316, 21609, 21904, 22201, 22500, 22801, 23104, 23409, 23716, 24025, 24336, 24649, 24964, 25281, 25600, 25921, 26244, 26569, 26896, 27225, 27556, 27889, 28224, 28561, 28900, 29241, 29584, 29929, 30276, 30625, 30976, 31329, 31684, 32041, 32400, 32761, 33124, 33489, 33856, 34225, 34596, 34969, 35344, 35721, 36100, 36481, 36864, 37249, 37636, 38025, 38416, 38809, 39204, 39601, 40000
We find only 18 numbers qualify (permalink):
1, 40, 81, 135, 216, 224, 400, 819, 1372, 3240, 3744, 4650, 6318, 18144, 21700, 27930, 30240, 32760
Here is the breakdown:
1 --> 1/1 = 1/1
40 --> 90/40 = 9/4
81 --> 121/81 = 121/81
135 --> 240/135 = 16/9
216 --> 600/216 = 25/9
224 --> 504/224 = 9/4
400 --> 961/400 = 961/400
819 --> 1456/819 = 16/9
1372 --> 2800/1372 = 100/49
3240 --> 10890/3240 = 121/36
3744 --> 11466/3744 = 49/16
4650 --> 11904/4650 = 64/25
6318 --> 15288/6318 = 196/81
18144 --> 60984/18144 = 121/36
21700 --> 55552/21700 = 64/25
27930 --> 82080/27930 = 144/49
30240 --> 120960/30240 = 4/1
32760 --> 131040/32760 = 4/1
These numbers belong to OEIS A069070.
