Abstract
-
All numbers are interesting such as that zero is no amount while it is an even number, and the first perfect number is six, 1 is the first deficient number, and 12 is the first abundant number. An Amicable pair is a pair of two whole numbers, each of which is the sum of the proper whole number divisors of the other. This presentation will explore amicable pairs and provide a strong number-theoretic foundation for understanding the amicable pairs. Additionally, we focus on the contributions of Thabit Ibn Qurra and Euler on finding amicable pairs.
