Euler Phi Function of 87

Example of Euler $\phi$ Function of Non-Square Semiprime

$\phi \left({87}\right) = 56$

where $\phi$ denotes the Euler $\phi$ Function.


Proof

We have that:

$87 = 3 \times 29$


Thus:

\(\ds \phi \left({87}\right)\) \(=\) \(\ds \left({3 - 1}\right) \left({29 - 1}\right)\) Euler $\phi$ Function of Non-Square Semiprime
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 2 \times 28\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 56\)
