Question:

If $\phi (n)$ represents Euler quotient function, then what is the value of $\phi (2000)$ ?

Options:

800

850

700

900

Correct Answer:

800

Explanation:

The correct answer is option (1) : 800

$\phi (2000)= \phi (2^4×5^2)$

$= \phi (2^4) × \phi (5^3)$

$= (2^4-2^3) (5^3-5^2)$

$= (16-8) (125-25)$

$= 8 × 100$

$= 800$
