In mathematics

96 as the difference of two squares (in orange).

96 is:

  • an octagonal number.[1]
  • a refactorable number.[2]
  • an untouchable number.[3]
  • a semiperfect number since it is a multiple of 6.
  • an abundant number since the sum of its proper divisors is greater than 96.
  • the fourth Granville number and the second non-perfect Granville number. The next Granville number is 126, the previous being 24.
  • the sum of Euler's totient function φ(x) over the first seventeen integers.
  • strobogrammatic in bases 10 (9610), 11 (8811) and 95 (1195).
  • palindromic in bases 11 (8811), 15 (6615), 23 (4423), 31 (3331), 47 (2247) and 95 (1195).
  • an Erdős–Woods number, since it is possible to find sequences of 96 consecutive integers such that each inner member shares a factor with either the first or the last member.[4]
  • divisible by the number of prime numbers (24) below 96.
  • the smallest natural number that can be expressed as the difference of two nonzero squares in more than three ways: [math]\displaystyle{ 10^2-2^2 }[/math], [math]\displaystyle{ 11^2-5^2 }[/math], [math]\displaystyle{ 14^2-10^2 }[/math] or [math]\displaystyle{ 25^2-23^2 }[/math].[5]

Skilling's figure, a degenerate uniform polyhedron, has a Euler characteristic [math]\displaystyle{ \chi=-96. }[/math]

Every integer greater than 96 may be represented as a sum of distinct super-prime numbers.
