Expert Solution
Step 1

Here in the question, We have to show n is an odd perfect number then, n = pαm2 where, p is an odd prime and pa1. To put it simply, a prime number can only be divided by itself and by one. Every prime number is an odd number, with the exception of number 2. The smallest odd prime number is three. No, not all odd numbers are prime numbers. We have to prove the result by Euler.
