This tricky math problem revolves around the concept of divisors –a mathematical concept in Number theory. A divisor (or factor) is an integer which evenly divides a number 𝘯 without leaving a remainder. For instance, by inspection, we see that 5 is a divisor of 30, and so is 6.

Number theory is more than just manipulating numbers and discovering interesting relationships between them. In fact, Number theory is the backbone behind some modern technologies such as cryptography, device authentication, security systems, websites, and coding.

Most medical tests occasionally produces incorrect results, called false positive and false negative. False positive result happens when a test indicates that a patient has a disease when in fact does not have it, while a false negative result indicates that a patient does not have a disease when in reality the patient does have it.

Mathematics also plays a huge role in the medical field. It bridges the gap by ensuring the accuracy and validity of different measurements in clinical practice such as diagnostic tests.
