**Exercise: Calculating the Euler Phi-Function**

Find the value of the Euler phi-function for each of the following integers:

a) 100  
b) 256  
c) 1001  
d) \(2 \cdot 3 \cdot 5 \cdot 7 \cdot 11 \cdot 13\)  
e) \(10!\)  
f) \(20!\)  

This exercise asks you to compute the Euler phi-function, which is significant in number theory because it gives the count of integers up to a given integer that are coprime with it.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Euler Phi-Function: Let n>1 be an integer and the prime factorization is n=p1k1·p2k2···pnkn, then the Euler Phi-Function of n is number of non-negative integers less than n that are relatively prime to n. Denoted by ϕ(n) and which is given by:

ϕn=n·1-1p1···1-1pn
