24575, and 301989887. And the two imperfectly amicable<br />

numbers will be 2473599180800, and 2473901154304, the sum<br />

of the parts of the latter of which arising from a division by<br />

2 and its powers with the addition of unity will be equal to the<br />

former.<br />

Farther still, the product of 4096 multiplied by 8 will be<br />

32768. The three numbers which are either primes or corresponding<br />

to primes, will be 98303, 196607, and 19327352831.<br />

And the two imperfectly or perfectly amicable numbers will be<br />

1266618067910656, and 1266637395132416.<br />

And in the last place if 32768 is multiplied by 8, the product<br />

will be 262144. The three numbers which are either primes or<br />

corresponding to primes, will be 786431, 1572863, and<br />

1236950581247. And the two imperfectly or perfectly amicable<br />

numbers will be 648517109391294464, and 64851 8346340827136.<br />

In order that the reader may become acquainted with the<br />

method of obtaining the parts of perfectly amicable numbers,<br />

I shall give an instance of it in the two numbers 9363584 and<br />

9437056. Let the first of these numbers then be divided by 2<br />

and the powers of 2, viz. by 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, &c. till the division<br />

is stopped by a remainder which is a prime number. These<br />

quotients with the indivisible remainder will be as below,<br />

4681792, 2340896, 1 170448, 585224, 292612, 146306, 73153. In<br />

the next place, as the two prime numbers 191 and 383, are<br />

multiplied together in order to produce the number 9363584,<br />

it is evident that these also are parts of it, and consequently<br />

they must be employed as the divisors of it. The quotient<br />

therefore of 9363584 divided by 191 is 49024; and the quotient<br />

of the same number divided by 383 is 24448. Each of these<br />

quotients also may be divided by 2 and its powers. The quotients<br />

therefore arising from the division of 49024 by 2 and<br />

its powers are 24512, 12256, 6128, 3064, 1532, 766; and the
