Unique Properties of 300
- 300 is the smallest triangular number that is a product of a nontrivial triangular number and non-trivial square: 300 = 3*100, where 3 is triangular and 100 is square
- 300 is the smallest number that is not a prime power such that it is divisible by a square of the sum of its prime divisors
Common Properties of 300
The number n is abundant if the sum of all its positive divisors except itself is more than n.
They are abundant above perfection, not to mention deficiency. See perfect and deficient numbers.
A positive integer greater than 1 that is not prime is called composite.
Composite numbers are opposite to prime numbers.
A number is even if it is divisible by 2.
Numbers that are not even are odd. Compare with another pair -- evil and odious numbers.
The number n is evil if it has an even number of 1's in its binary expansion.
Guess what odious numbers are.
The number n is practical if all numbers strictly less than n are sums of distinct divisors of n.
If you start with n points on a line, then draw n-1 points above and between, then n-2 above and between them, and so on, you will get a triangle of points. The number of points in this triangle is a triangle number.
Compare to square, pentagonal and tetrahedral numbers.
