+# Instructions
+
+Determine if a number is perfect, abundant, or deficient based on Nicomachus' (60 - 120 CE) classification scheme for positive integers.
+
+The Greek mathematician [Nicomachus][nicomachus] devised a classification scheme for positive integers, identifying each as belonging uniquely to the categories of [perfect](#perfect), [abundant](#abundant), or [deficient](#deficient) based on their [aliquot sum][aliquot-sum].
+The _aliquot sum_ is defined as the sum of the factors of a number not including the number itself.
+For example, the aliquot sum of `15` is `1 + 3 + 5 = 9`.
+
+## Perfect
+
+A number is perfect when it equals its aliquot sum.
+For example:
+
+- `6` is a perfect number because `1 + 2 + 3 = 6`
+- `28` is a perfect number because `1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14 = 28`
+
+## Abundant
+
+A number is abundant when it is less than its aliquot sum.
+For example:
+
+- `12` is an abundant number because `1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 6 = 16`
+- `24` is an abundant number because `1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 12 = 36`
+
+## Deficient
+
+A number is deficient when it is greater than its aliquot sum.
+For example:
+
+- `8` is a deficient number because `1 + 2 + 4 = 7`
+- Prime numbers are deficient
+
+## Task
+
+Implement a way to determine whether a given number is [perfect](#perfect).
+Depending on your language track, you may also need to implement a way to determine whether a given number is [abundant](#abundant) or [deficient](#deficient).
