A number is a perfect square (or a square number) if its square root is an integer; that is to say, it is the product of an integer with itself. Here, the square root of 419 is about 20.469.

Thus, the square root of 419 is not an integer, and therefore 419 is not a square number.

Anyway, 419 is a prime number, and a prime number cannot be a perfect square.

The square of a number (here 419) is the result of the product of this number (419) by itself (i.e., 419 × 419); the square of 419 is sometimes called "raising 419 to the power 2", or "419 squared".

The square of 419 is 175 561 because 419 × 419 = 419² = 175 561.

As a consequence, 419 is the square root of 175 561.

419 is a number with 3 digits.

The multiples of 419 are all integers evenly divisible by 419, that is all numbers such that the remainder of the division by 419 is zero. There are infinitely many multiples of 419. The smallest multiples of 419 are:

• 0: indeed, 0 is divisible by any natural number, and it is thus a multiple of 419 too, since 0 × 419 = 0
• 419: indeed, 419 is a multiple of itself, since 419 is evenly divisible by 419 (we have 419 / 419 = 1, so the remainder of this division is indeed zero)
• 838: indeed, 838 = 419 × 2
• 1 257: indeed, 1 257 = 419 × 3
• 1 676: indeed, 1 676 = 419 × 4
• 2 095: indeed, 2 095 = 419 × 5
• etc.

To determine the primality of a number, several algorithms can be used. The most naive technique is to test all divisors strictly smaller to the number of which we want to determine the primality (here 419). First, we can eliminate all even numbers greater than 2 (and hence 4, 6, 8…). Then, we can stop this check when we reach the square root of the number of which we want to determine the primality (here the square root is about 20.469). Historically, the sieve of Eratosthenes (dating from the Greek mathematics) implements this technique in a relatively efficient manner.

More modern techniques include the sieve of Atkin, probabilistic algorithms, and the cyclotomic AKS test.
