91 is:
- the twenty-seventh distinct semiprime1 and the second of the form (7.q), where q is a higher prime.
- the aliquot sum of 91 is 21; itself a semiprime, within an aliquot sequence of two composite numbers (91, 21, 11, 1, 0) to the prime in the 11-aliquot tree. 91 is the fourth composite number in the 11-aliquot tree. (91, 51, 21, 18).
- the 13th triangular number.2
- a hexagonal number,3 one of the few such numbers to also be a centered hexagonal number.4
- a centered nonagonal number.5
- a centered cube number.6
- a square pyramidal number, being the sum of the squares of the first six integers.7
- the smallest positive integer expressible as a sum of two cubes in two different ways if negative roots are allowed (alternatively the sum of two cubes and the difference of two cubes):8 91 = 63 + (−5)3 = 43 + 33. (See 1729 for more details). This implies that 91 is the second cabtaxi number.
- the smallest positive integer expressible as a sum of six distinct squares: 91 = 12 + 22 + 32 + 42 + 52 + 62.
- The only other ways to write 91 as a sum of distinct squares are: 91 = 12 + 42 + 52 + 72 and
- 91 = 12 + 32 + 92.
- the smallest pseudoprime satisfying the congruence 3n ≡ 3 mod n.9
- a repdigit in base 9 (1119).
- palindromic in bases 3 (101013), 9 (1119), and 12 (7712).
- a Riordan number.10
- the smallest number that looks prime but is not, proven using the Rotten Theorem by John Conway.1112
The decimal equivalent of the fraction 1⁄91 can be obtained by using powers of 9.
