Given an integer N, the task is to count the values of K ( where 1 ? K? N ), such that 1< GCD(K, N) < K.

Examples:

Input: N = 10
Output: 3
Explanation: The values of K which satisfies the given conditions are: 

  • K = 4, gcd(4, 10) = 2
  • K = 6, gcd(6, 10) = 2
  • K = 8, gcd(8, 10) = 2

Input: N = 15
Output: 4
Explanation: The values of K which satisfies the given conditions are: 

  • K = 6, gcd(6, 15) = 3
  • K = 9, gcd(9, 15) = 3
  • K = 10, gcd(10, 15) = 5
  • K = 12, gcd(12, 15) = 3

Naive Approach: The simplest approach is to iterate over the range [1, N], and check for each number, whether it satisfies the given condition or not. Finally, print the count of such numbers.

Time Complexity: O(N*log(N))
Auxiliary Space: O(1) 

Efficient Approach: The idea is to find all the numbers in the range [1, N], for which gcd(K, N) = 1 and gcd(K, N) = K and then finally remove all these numbers from N to get the final answer. Follow the steps below to solve the problem:

  • Store all the prime factors of N using Sieve of Eratosthenes.
  • Store the count of all the numbers in the range [1, N] for which gcd(N, K) = K in a variable count1.
  • Store the count of all the numbers in the range [1, N] for which gcd(N, K) = 1 using Euler's Totient Function in a variable count2.
  • Remove these numbers from N, by updating ans to N - (count1 + count2).
  • Print the value of ans as the result.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++
// C++ program for the above approach #include <bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std;  // Store the all prime numbers // using Sieve of Eratosthenes const int MAXN = 100001; vector<int> spf;  // Function to fill the prime numbers // using Sieve of Eratosthenes void sieve() {     // Create a boolean array and     // initialize all entries it as 0     int p[MAXN + 1] = { 0 };      p[2] = 1;     for (long long int i = 3; i < MAXN; i += 2) {         p[i] = 1;     }      // Push the first prime number     spf.push_back(2);      for (long long i = 3; i < MAXN; i += 2) {          // If the current number is prime         if (p[i]) {              // Store the prime numbers             // in spf which is prime             spf.push_back(i);              // Mark all its multiples as false             for (long long int j = i * i; j < MAXN;                  j += 2 * i)                 p[j] = 0;         }     } }  // Function to count the values of K where // 1?K?N such that 1< gcd(K, N) < K void countK(int N) {     // Precalculate prime numbers     sieve();     int N1 = N;      // Store the smallest prime number     int div = spf[0];      int index = 1, C = 0;      // Store the count of those numbers in the     // range [1, N] for which gcd(N, K) = K     int count1 = 1;      // Store the count of those numbers from     // the range [1, N] such that gcd(N, K) = 1     float count2 = N;      // Iterate through all prime factors of N     while (div * div <= N) {         if (N % div == 0) {             C = 0;             while (N % div == 0) {                 N /= div;                 C++;             }              count1 = count1 * (C + 1);              // count2 is determined by             // Euler's Totient Function             count2 *= (1.0 - (1.0 / (float)div));         }          div = spf[index];          index++;     }     if (N != 1) {          count1 *= 2;         count2 = count2 * (1.0 - (1.0 / (float)N));     }      int ans = N1 - count1 - count2;      // Add 1 to result as 1 is contributed     // twice due to count1 and count2     ans = ans + 1;      // Print the result     cout << ans;      return; }  // Driver Code int main() {     // Given Input     int N = 10;      // Function Call     countK(N);      return 0; }
