Digital Root Sums of Factorisations
A composite number can be factored many different ways.
For instance, not including multiplication by one,
Recall that the digital root of a number, in base
We shall call a Digital Root Sum (DRS) the sum of the digital roots of the individual factors of our number.
The chart below demonstrates all of the DRS values for
