A325902 (#220)

Jonathan Frech

Fifty is a peculiar integer.
When looking at its neighbors — the largest integer strictly beneath and the smallest strictly above —, more specifically their prime factorization, one finds

$$49=\underbrace{7^2<50<3\cdot 17}_{7+7+3=17}=51.$$$$49=\underbrace{7^2<50<3\cdot 17}_{7+7+3=17}=51.$$

Notably, there exists a partition of the neighbor’s factors into two multisets such that both parts’ sums equal another.

Positive integers with the above described property can be found in my most recent addition to the OEIS: sequence A325902.
