Is 193 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 193 is about 13.892.

Thus, the square root of 193 is not an integer, and therefore 193 is not a square number.

Anyway, 193 is a prime number, and a prime number cannot be a perfect square.

What is the square number of 193?

The square of a number (here 193) is the result of the product of this number (193) by itself (i.e., 193 × 193); the square of 193 is sometimes called "raising 193 to the power 2", or "193 squared".

The square of 193 is 37 249 because 193 × 193 = 1932 = 37 249.

As a consequence, 193 is the square root of 37 249.

Number of digits of 193

193 is a number with 3 digits.

What are the multiples of 193?

The multiples of 193 are all integers evenly divisible by 193, that is all numbers such that the remainder of the division by 193 is zero. There are infinitely many multiples of 193. The smallest multiples of 193 are:

  • 0: indeed, 0 is divisible by any natural number, and it is thus a multiple of 193 too, since 0 × 193 = 0
  • 193: indeed, 193 is a multiple of itself, since 193 is evenly divisible by 193 (we have 193 / 193 = 1, so the remainder of this division is indeed zero)
  • 386: indeed, 386 = 193 × 2
  • 579: indeed, 579 = 193 × 3
  • 772: indeed, 772 = 193 × 4
  • 965: indeed, 965 = 193 × 5
  • etc.

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 193). 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 13.892). 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.
