$\frac{n+y}{n}$ is an integer for some integer value of $n$ while $y$ is an integer.find the summation of the value of all $n$

Write $\frac{n+y}{n}=1+\frac{y}{n}$ so $n$ must divide $y$. Thus sum of the values of all $n$ is actually the sum of divisors of $y$. :|

@ SANZEED, Rafe has said $n\in Z$, not $n\in N$.
If $a$ divides $y$, then $-a$ also divides $y$. Hence summation of all values of $n$ is $0$.

In my pc, I am not seeing \mathbb characters. Is it happening also to you? If is, then I think the file 'AMSmath.js' has been damaged in this server. We should inform it to Moon Vai immediately.

No, all \mathbb symbols are loading alright in my PC. You might try clearing your jsMath cache.
