13461

13461 is a positive integer in the decimal system, occurring after 13460 and before 13462. Like other natural numbers, it has various mathematical properties that can be noted independent of any particular context.

In mathematics, 13461 is an odd composite number. Its prime factorization is 3 × 7 × 641. The sum of its digits is 15, which confirms divisibility by 3, and it is not divisible by 2 or 5. This makes 13461 neither a prime nor a perfect power, and it participates in the usual arithmetic and modular properties associated with its factors.

In astronomy, 13461 is used as the permanent designation for a minor planet (asteroid) once the object's orbit has been sufficiently well determined. The number serves as a sequential identifier assigned by the Minor Planet Center. Many such objects also carry provisional designations and may later receive formal names, but the numeric designation remains the primary identifier in official catalogs.

Beyond mathematics and astronomy, 13461 can appear as a general numeric code in various domains, such as catalog numbers, administrative identifiers, or product listings. Without additional context, it does not have a single universal meaning beyond its role as a numeric designation and its intrinsic mathematical properties.
