677 Fermat's cousin and that 677=2k+1=2*338 and 677=4k+1=4*169. It is a number that, as mentioned, can be represented as the sum of two squares, then, is a Gaussian integer, then
677=(26+i)(26-i) as a reciprocal or conjugate or
677=(26+i)(1+26i)(-i) as in factorization with symmetric unit
Using the conjecture of Albert Girard that every number can be a square sum of plus or minus another number multiplied by a square of 2 or more a square-minus the sum of prime, we can establish that, 677 has the representation:
677=4^2+661=6^2+677=8^2+613=10^2+577
677=3^2+167*2^2=5^2+163*2^2=7^2+153*2^2=9^2+149*2^2
or
677=28^2-107=30^2-223=32^2-347=34^2-479 =36^2-619
677=27^2-13*2^2=29^2-41*2^2 =31^2-71*2^2=33^2-103*2^2=35^2-137*2^2
677 is a typical number that allows a teacher to develop a masterclass on the unique factorization in quadratic fields.
