By using the exact formula for the generalized Euler function ϕ 8 ( n ) , for one of the formulas, this paper studies the solvability for the equation ϕ 8 ( n ) = n d , where n is a positive integer and d is a positive factor of n > 8. Use elementary methods and techniques to obtain all its positive integer solutions ( n , d ) , when α = 0 , the positive integer solution of the equation is ( n , d ) = ( 9 , 9 ) ( 11 , 11 ) . When α = 1 and α = 2 , the equation has no positive integer solution.
