For a positive integer $n$, $\phi(n)$ denotes the number of positive integers less than or equal to $n$ that are relatively prime to $n$.
What is $\phi(1200)$?

Let's set up for a really cool function. 

First, note that

1200=125222=24352

 

Now, we use Euler's Totient Function. We have

ϕ1200=1200/(235)(21)(31)(51)=40(1)(2)(4)=320

 

The answer is 320

 

Thanks! :)
