i remembered this morning that there are only 4 perfect numbers known to modern day society

they are

6
28
496
8124
a perfect number is a number that is the sum of all it's dividers
I.E 6 (1,2,3)=6
interestingly enough 6 is the only single perfect number, more so all the compounds all break down to one

coincidence that 6 the number of love is the only single PERFECT number?

i think not

Well 7 happens to be the only perfect number, ultimately.

Well Mannu, spiritually, religiously, and figuratively, all throughout time 7 has been categorized as the obsolete number. But you can think of 3 as a perfect number, it symbolizes our astrological trinities....

Agreed, but the point is 6 is a perfect number because

1 divides 6, 2 divides 6, 3 divides 6

and 1+ 2 + 3 = the number itself 6.

What are the divisors of 3 and 7 besides 1 to make them perfect numbers mathematically?

Mannu knows what i'm talking about

i didn't mean in an esoteric sense
