Problem:
Let $D = \{ n\in\mathbb{N} | 128000 \vdots n\}$. Calculate $\sum_{n\in D} n$.
We can see that $n = 128000k$, and $n$ needs to be even. But I don't know what to do. Any ideas?

Your question does not make sense. As currently phrased the answer is trivially $\infty$ – Robert S May 17 '20 at 14:15

3What does $128000 \vdots n$ mean? Do you mean...$n$ is divisible by $128000$? But then the sum obviously diverges. – lulu May 17 '20 at 14:15

I edited. Im sorry. – sticknycu May 17 '20 at 14:18

2Are you sure you didn't mean $n,|,128000$"? – lulu May 17 '20 at 14:19

When using nonstandard notation you should define it. – Bill Dubuque May 17 '20 at 18:15

I suppose that the sum of divisors of $128000$ was meant, i.e., $$ \sigma(128000)=\sum_{d\mid 128000} d=319332. $$ Here we can use an explicit formula for $\sigma(n)$, using the prime factorisation $128000=2^{10}\cdot 5^3$ see here:
Is there a formula to calculate the sum of all proper divisors of a number?

@Gone I usually do this, but here I was not sure whether it is an exact duplicate. Actually, it was not even clear to me whether or not the question was about $\sigma(n)$. Nevertheless you are right, of course. – Dietrich Burde May 17 '20 at 18:18

Then you can post a comment. It makes it harder to clean up now that it has an accepted answer, i.e. we need to waste more time doing so... – Bill Dubuque May 17 '20 at 18:20
