# --description--

Euler's Totient function, ${\phi}(n)$ (sometimes called the phi function), is used to determine the number of numbers less than `n` which are relatively prime to `n`. For example, as 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, and 8, are all less than nine and relatively prime to nine, ${\phi}(9) = 6$.

It can be seen that `n` = 6 produces a maximum $\displaystyle\frac{n}{{\phi}(n)}$ for `n` ≤ 10.
|
|
|
|
Find the value of `n` ≤ `limit` for which $\displaystyle\frac{n}{{\phi(n)}}$ is a maximum.

# --hints--
|
|
|
|
`totientMaximum(10)` should return a number.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert(typeof totientMaximum(10) === 'number');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`totientMaximum(10)` should return `6`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert.strictEqual(totientMaximum(10), 6);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`totientMaximum(10000)` should return `2310`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert.strictEqual(totientMaximum(10000), 2310);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`totientMaximum(500000)` should return `30030`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert.strictEqual(totientMaximum(500000), 30030);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`totientMaximum(1000000)` should return `510510`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert.strictEqual(totientMaximum(1000000), 510510);
|
|
```
