%N A074902 Known friendly numbers.
%C A074902 The sequence is not known to be complete up to 372, since there are many 
               small numbers, including 10, 14, 15 and 20, which have not been proved 
               to be solitary. If any other numbers up to 372 are friendly, the 
               smallest corresponding values of m are > 10^30.
%C A074902 A positive integer n is 'friendly' if abundancy(n) = abundancy(m) for 
               some positive integer m not equal to n, where abundancy(n) = sigma(n)/
               n (cf. A000203); otherwise n is 'solitary'. (The name "friendly" 
               is also sometimes mistakenly used with other meanings; cf. A063990 
               and A007770.)
%C A074902 All perfect numbers are friendly numbers, but they are only friendly 
               with each other (a perfect number being defined as having abundancy 
               index of 2.) [From Daniel Forgues (squid(AT)zensearch.com), Jun 23

%e A074902 24 is in the sequence since abundancy(24) = abundancy(91963648) = 5/2.
