Abstract
We formulate the additive entropy of a natural number in terms of the additive partition function, and show that its multiplicative entropy is directly related to the multiplicative partition function. We give a practical formula for the multiplicative entropy of natural numbers with two prime factors. We use this formula to analyze the comparative density of additive and multiplicative entropy, prove that this density converges to zero as the number tends to infinity, and empirically observe this asymptotic behavior.
