Talk:64 (number)

Is something wrong with the math markup on this page? Andy Mabbett 01:29, 22 Dec 2003 (UTC)

No, its just cause when it detects no special math character is needed it doesn't make a ping, so you see text rather than a ping of text. -- Anonymous User

64 incident?[edit]

A Google search for "64 incident" yields mostly unrelated results. The results that do mention Tianamen are for this Wikipedia article. I also tried "64 tianamen" and that gave similar results. Anton Mravcek 17:18, 3 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is a growing problem in Wikipedia. I've found other "facts" that were spread throughout the web, but the original source was always Wikipedia! --Grouse 22:48, 3 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is this right?[edit]

From the Article: It is also the number of days a reoccurance took place over the summer of 2005 to a then 13 yr old girl.

That was in the astronomy section. It doesn't sound relevant to astronomy so I removed it. PrimeFan 20:44, 13 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

An interesting observation about 64[edit]

Noting that 2^6 = 4^3 = 8^2, is it just a little interesting that 2*4*8 = 64 ? Is there any other number with this property? -- Toksyuryel ^{talk | contrib} avatar 18:23, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Can you state this property algebraically? (Something like n = x^2 + y^3 ... etc.) PrimeFan 22:32, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well so far 64 is the only number I know to have this property... where the number is a product of all of its roots. If we could find more numbers perhaps we could find a pattern for it (like we have something of a pattern for perfect numbers) -- Toksyuryel ^{talk | contrib} avatar 07:49, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Every number is a product of all its prime roots. This is an inherent property of all numbers. So 8 = 4*2, 16=8*2 or 4*4 or 16*1, ect. Only prime numbers are products of all their roots, with a few exceptions (8 = 4*2*1, 6=3*2*1, 14 = 7*2*1, 21 = 7*3*1, ect.). Titanium Dragon 07:38, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Those are factors, not roots. -- Toksyuryel ^{talk | contrib} avatar 20:00, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Any 6th power of a number which is not a perfect power.... — Arthur Rubin (talk) 05:42, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In general, a number is the product of all of its nontrivial roots if it can be written as a^b, where a is a non-power and b is a perfect number. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 20:56, 11 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

$64,000 question[edit]

Shouldn't The 64,000 Dollar Question be listed under 64,000 rather than 64? — Arthur Rubin (talk) 02:51, 11 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Number of shares in a ship or boat under British Registry...[edit]

"Number of shares in a ship or boat under British Registry owing to its divisibility by 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 16, 32". No source is quoted and I have been unable to verify this sentence. Sources suggest to me that the 64 shares can be split in any number of ways and has nothing to do with the divisibility in the text. Also, 64 is not divisible by 6. Bestendeavors (talk) 18:49, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. I removed it as unreferenced trivia. It’s not the only piece of trivia on this page. More generally, I have been contemplating a systematic weeding of trivia in the number articles. Barnards.tar.gz (talk) 20:40, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

By the end of the year maybe we should consider removing almost all trivia from number articles, so as to start 2024 with a fresh cleanse, number-article-wise. Radlrb (talk) 23:47, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
