Is 505 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 505 is about 22.472.

Thus, the square root of 505 is not an integer, and therefore 505 is not a square number.

What is the square number of 505?

The square of a number (here 505) is the result of the product of this number (505) by itself (i.e., 505 × 505); the square of 505 is sometimes called "raising 505 to the power 2", or "505 squared".

The square of 505 is 255 025 because 505 × 505 = 5052 = 255 025.

As a consequence, 505 is the square root of 255 025.

Number of digits of 505

505 is a number with 3 digits.

What are the multiples of 505?

The multiples of 505 are all integers evenly divisible by 505, that is all numbers such that the remainder of the division by 505 is zero. There are infinitely many multiples of 505. The smallest multiples of 505 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 505). 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 22.472). 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.
