4606

4606 is a natural number that follows 4605 and precedes 4607. It is an even, composite number with a prime factorization of 2 × 7² × 47, indicating divisibility by 2, 7, and 47 (with 7 appearing twice).

The sum of all divisors of 4606 is (1+2) × (1+7+49) × (1+47) = 3 × 57 × 48 = 8208. Therefore the sum of proper divisors is 8208 − 4606 = 3602. Because 3602 is less than 4606, 4606 is classified as a deficient number in number theory.

In common representations, 4606 is written in decimal as 4606 and in hexadecimal as 0x11FE. The decimal digits sum to 16, so 4606 is not divisible by 3. As a multiple of 7, it is also divisible by 49, since 4606 = 49 × 94. The number’s evenness and its factorization place it distinctly within basic arithmetic and elementary factorization studies.

Beyond pure mathematics, 4606 may appear in various practical contexts such as catalog numbers, model identifiers, or postal and internal coding schemes. As a standalone integer, it does not carry a widely recognized mathematical constant or widely noted historical significance.
