May 9, 2017 at 19:59 comment added Nikhil Bhavar Oh I missed that.
May 9, 2017 at 19:57 comment added Carlo Beenakker $2n+1$ is if you do not exclude $n$ as divisor; if you do, the sum is $n+1$, and if you also exclude $1$ (which is what you want), the sum is $n$ --- or am I missing something obvious here???
May 9, 2017 at 19:53 comment added Nikhil Bhavar For a number n, their sum is equal to 2n+1.
May 9, 2017 at 19:49 comment added Carlo Beenakker that's what it is, right? you want $n$ to be the sum of all of its divisors excluding 1 and excluding itself.
May 9, 2017 at 19:45 comment added Nikhil Bhavar It states, "A quasiperfect number is a natural number n for which the sum of all its divisors is equal to 2n + 1. Equivalently, n is the sum of its non-trivial divisors (that is, its divisors excluding 1 and 'n')." But I am looking for a number for which the sum of most of its divisors is itself.
