Is 295 a perfect square number?

A number is a perfect square (or a square number) if its square root is an integer; that is to say, it is the product of an integer with itself. Here, the square root of 295 is about 17.176.

Thus, the square root of 295 is not an integer, and therefore 295 is not a square number.

What is the square number of 295?

The square of a number (here 295) is the result of the product of this number (295) by itself (i.e., 295 × 295); the square of 295 is sometimes called "raising 295 to the power 2", or "295 squared".

The square of 295 is 87 025 because 295 × 295 = 2952 = 87 025.

As a consequence, 295 is the square root of 87 025.

Number of digits of 295

295 is a number with 3 digits.

What are the multiples of 295?

The multiples of 295 are all integers evenly divisible by 295, that is all numbers such that the remainder of the division by 295 is zero. There are infinitely many multiples of 295. The smallest multiples of 295 are:

How to determine whether an integer is a prime number?

To determine the primality of a number, several algorithms can be used. The most naive technique is to test all divisors strictly smaller to the number of which we want to determine the primality (here 295). First, we can eliminate all even numbers greater than 2 (and hence 4, 6, 8…). Then, we can stop this check when we reach the square root of the number of which we want to determine the primality (here the square root is about 17.176). Historically, the sieve of Eratosthenes (dating from the Greek mathematics) implements this technique in a relatively efficient manner.

More modern techniques include the sieve of Atkin, probabilistic algorithms, and the cyclotomic AKS test.
