"digits sum"
| |
Hello:
I have found that if two numbers A and B sum C (A+B=C), the sum of the digits of A + the sum of the digits of B is similar to the sum of the digits of C. (reduced to a digit)
Does this property have a demonstrable foundation as theorem?
It is alone a curiosity that has arisen when I play with numbers in search of finding a easy test of primality.
Investigating this property I found your site that I find very interesting and informative and it contains similar topics those that I ask.
Thank you for your time and attention. xordan.tom@gmail.com P.S.: Original in spanish |

This has the property, indeed, that the digital root of the sum equals to the (reduced if necessary) sum of digital roots. The same holds for products. The digital root of a number divisible by 9 is 9. Otherwise, the digital root of a number N is N (mod 9). |

You may be curious to have a look at the old CTK Exchange archive.
Please do not post there.
