Multiply perfect number

Number whose divisors add to a multiple of that number Demonstration, with Cuisenaire rods, of the 2-perfection of the number 6 In mathematics, a multiply perfect number (also called multiperfect number or pluperfect number) is a generalization of a perfect number.

A numb...
