16855

16855 is a positive integer that appears in various contexts as a numerical designation. In mathematics it can be expressed as the product of 5 and 3371, so it is a composite number. Its divisors include 1, 5, 3371, and 16855, reflecting its factorization.

In astronomy, 16855 is the designation of a numbered minor planet in the catalog of small Solar System bodies maintained by the Minor Planet Center. Objects with such numbers are typically asteroids or other small Solar System bodies; the number indicates the order in which the object’s orbit was officially cataloged. Many numbered minor planets remain unnamed.

Outside of mathematics and astronomy, five-digit numbers like 16855 are commonly used as identifiers in various systems. As a five-digit numeric value, it can appear in contexts such as postal codes, catalog numbers, or inventory identifiers, among others. The specific use of 16855 in any given system depends on the conventions of that system and is not unique to the number itself.

Overall, 16855 is primarily recognized as an integer with simple factorization, and secondarily as a catalog identifier used in scientific databases and broader data systems.
