Introduction The Phi is described as the number of positive integers less than n (positive integer) which have no factor, other than 1, in common, co-prime, with n. In my investigation I aim to identify and explain the rules and equations associated with the Phi function. To go about this I will investigate ? (n). This will be further touched upon and will help me investigate and support any conclusions I hope to gain from investigating whether (a x b) = (a) x (b) in certain cases.
