A positive integer is called -smooth, if its largest prime factor is at most . Smooth numbers are widely recognized as playing a pivotal role in analytic number theory, and the study of their distribution constitutes a core focus in relevant research. On the other hand, Bordellès, Dai, Heyman, Pan, and Shparlinski first studied the primes of the form , and later, a paper written by Bordellès, Dai, Heyman, and Nikolic concentrated on studying primes of the form . Combining the two lines of research, in this paper we studied the smooth number of the form and , where denoted the integral part of a real number . Clearly, studies concerning the distribution of smooth numbers play an important role in number theory, which makes our studies valuable and rather interesting.
