| − | Given the [[prime factorization]] of <math>n = p_1^{a_1}p_2^{a_2} \cdots p_n^{a_n}</math>, then one formula for <math>\phi(n)</math> is:
| |
| − | <math> \phi(n) = n(1-\frac{1}{p_1})(1-\frac{1}{p_2}) \cdots (1-\frac{1}{p_n}) </math>

| − | For [[prime]] p, <math>\phi(p)=p-1</math>, because all numbers less than p are relatively prime to it.
