Is 288 a deficient number?

Here we will explain and calculate if 288 is a deficient number and its deficiency if applicable.

288 is a deficient number if the sum of its proper divisors is less than 288.

The sum of its proper divisors is calculated as follows: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 9 + 12 + 16 + 18 + 24 + 32 + 36 + 48 + 72 + 96 + 144 = 531.

531 is not less than 288. Therefore, 288 is not a deficient number.

The deficiency of 288 is 288 minus the sum of its proper divisors. Thus, the deficiency of 288 is 288 - 531 = No Deficiency
