bölünürlük

Bölünürlük is a Turkish term that translates to "divisibility" in English. It refers to the property of an integer to be evenly divisible by another integer without leaving a remainder. For example, the number 12 has the property of bölünürlük with respect to the number 3 because 12 divided by 3 equals 4 with no remainder.

In mathematics, when an integer 'a' is divisible by an integer 'b', it means that there exists an integer 'k' such that a = b * k. This relationship is often denoted as b | a, which is read as "b divides a". The number 'b' is called a divisor or factor of 'a', and 'a' is called a multiple of 'b'.

The concept of bölünürlük is fundamental in number theory and has numerous applications. It is used in prime factorization, finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) and least common multiple (LCM) of numbers, and in various algorithms. For instance, in cryptography, understanding divisibility is crucial for developing secure encryption methods.

Prime numbers are integers greater than 1 that have only two divisors: 1 and themselves. Composite numbers, on the other hand, have more than two divisors. The study of which numbers are divisible by which others forms the basis of many mathematical explorations and problem-solving techniques.
