Smooth number

From Prime-Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

A smooth number is an integer whose prime factors are less or equal to a prescribed bound (smoothness bound).

If this bound is B, we can say that the number is B-smooth.

For example the number 900 is 10-smooth, because

900 = 22 × 32 × 52

Its greatest prime factor is 5, and 5 <= 10.
