Is 38 a deficient number?

Here we will explain and calculate if 38 is a deficient number and its deficiency if applicable.

38 is a deficient number if the sum of its proper divisors is less than 38.

The sum of its proper divisors is calculated as follows: 1 + 2 + 19 = 22.

22 is less than 38. Therefore, 38 is a deficient number.

The deficiency of 38 is 38 minus the sum of its proper divisors. Thus, the deficiency of 38 is 38 - 22 = 16
