12 (twelve) is the natural number following 11 and preceding 13.. Twelve is the 3rd superior highly composite number, [1] the 3rd colossally abundant number, [2] the 5th highly composite number, and is divisible by the numbers from 1 to 4, and 6, a large number of divisors comparatively.
The basic rule for divisibility by 4 is that if the number formed by the last two digits in a number is divisible by 4, the original number is divisible by 4; [2] [3] this is because 100 is divisible by 4 and so adding hundreds, thousands, etc. is simply adding another number that is divisible by 4. If any number ends in a two digit number that ...
d() is the number of positive divisors of n, including 1 and n itself; σ() is the sum of the positive divisors of n, including 1 and n itselfs() is the sum of the proper divisors of n, including 1 but not n itself; that is, s(n) = σ(n) − n
In number theory, a weird number is a natural number that is abundant but not semiperfect. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In other words, the sum of the proper divisors ( divisors including 1 but not itself) of the number is greater than the number, but no subset of those divisors sums to the number itself.
The first 15 superior highly composite numbers, 2, 6, 12, 60, 120, 360, 2520, 5040, 55440, 720720, 1441440, 4324320, 21621600, 367567200, 6983776800 (sequence A002201 in the OEIS) are also the first 15 colossally abundant numbers, which meet a similar condition based on the sum-of-divisors function rather than the number of divisors. Neither ...
The duodecimal system, also known as base twelve or dozenal, is a positional numeral system using twelve as its base.In duodecimal, the number twelve is denoted "10", meaning 1 twelve and 0 units; in the decimal system, this number is instead written as "12" meaning 1 ten and 2 units, and the string "10" means ten.
Demonstration, with Cuisenaire rods, of the first four highly composite numbers: 1, 2, 4, 6. A highly composite number is a positive integer that has more divisors than all smaller positive integers. If d(n) denotes the number of divisors of a positive integer n, then a positive integer N is highly composite if d(N) > d(n) for all n < N.
Five is the only prime that belongs to two pairs, as every twin prime pair greater than (3, 5) is of the form (, +) for some natural number n; that is, the number between the two primes is a multiple of 6. [4] As a result, the sum of any pair of twin primes (other than 3 and 5) is divisible by 12.
