Given an integer N. The task is to find the maximum possible sum of intermediate values (Including N and 1) attained after applying the below operation:
 

Divide N by any divisor (>1) until it becomes 1. 

Examples: 
 

Input: N = 10
Output: 16
Initially, N=10
1st Division -> N = 10/2 = 5 
2nd Division -> N= 5/5 = 1

Input: N = 8
Output: 15
Initially, N=8
1st Division -> N = 8/2 = 4 
2nd Division -> N= 4/2 = 2
3rd Division -> N= 2/2 = 1

 

Approach: Since the task is to maximize the sum of values after each step, try to maximize individual values. So, reduce the value of N by as little as possible. To achieve that, we divide N by its smallest divisor.
Below is the implementation of the above approach:
 

C++




// C++ implementation of the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to find the smallest divisor
int smallestDivisor(int n)
{
    int mx = sqrt(n);
    for (int i = 2; i <= mx; i++)
        if (n % i == 0)
            return i;
    return n;
}
 
// Function to find the maximum sum
int maxSum(int n)
{
    long long res = n;
    while (n > 1) {
        int divi = smallestDivisor(n);
        n /= divi;
        res += n;
    }
    return res;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    int n = 34;
    cout << maxSum(n);
 
    return 0;
}


C




// C implementation of the above approach
#include <stdio.h>
#include<math.h>
 
// Function to find the smallest divisor
int smallestDivisor(int n)
{
    int mx = sqrt(n);
    for (int i = 2; i <= mx; i++)
        if (n % i == 0)
            return i;
    return n;
}
 
// Function to find the maximum sum
int maxSum(int n)
{
    long long res = n;
    while (n > 1) {
        int divi = smallestDivisor(n);
        n /= divi;
        res += n;
    }
    return res;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    int n = 34;
    printf("%d",maxSum(n));
 
    return 0;
}

    for (int i = 2; i <= mx; i++)
        if (n % i == 0)
            return i;
    return n;
}
 
// Function to find the maximum sum
static double maxSum(int n)
{
    long res = n;
    while (n > 1)
    {
        double divi = smallestDivisor(n);
        n /= divi;

        n = int(n/divi)

<script>
// javascript implementation of the above approach
 
    // Function to find the smallest divisor
    function smallestDivisor(n) {
        var mx = Math.sqrt(n);
        for (i = 2; i <= mx; i++)
            if (n % i == 0)
                return i;
        return n;
    }
 
    // Function to find the maximum sum
    function maxSum(n) {
        var res = n;
        while (n > 1) {
            var divi = smallestDivisor(n);
            n /= divi;
            res += n;
        }
        return res;
    }
 
    // Driver Code
        var n = 34;
        document.write(maxSum(n));
 
// This code is contributed by Rajput-Ji
</script>


Output: 

52

 

Time Complexity: O(sqrt(n)*log(n)), where n represents the given integer.
Auxiliary Space: O(1), no extra space is required, so it is a constant.
