17000

17000 is a natural number that follows 16999 and precedes 17001. In decimal notation it is written as 17000, often shown with a comma as 17,000. It equals 17 × 1000, or 17 × 10^3, and its prime factorization is 2^3 × 5^3 × 17.

As a result of its factorization, 17000 is divisible by a number of common integers. It is divisible by 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, and 1000, among others, and specifically by 17 and by 125, since 17000 = 17 × 1000 and 1000 = 2^3 × 5^3. The combination of factors also makes it divisible by many products of these primes, giving it a fairly large set of divisors for a 5-digit number.

In base-10 arithmetic, the sum of the digits of 17000 is 1 + 7 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 8, and because 17000 is divisible by 8, it is classified as a Harshad (or Niven) number in base 10. This means the number is divisible by the sum of its digits.

In words, 17000 is seventeen thousand. It is a multiple of 1000 and is commonly encountered as a rounded figure in statistics, finance, or measurement contexts. In traditional Roman numerals, very large numbers use overlines to indicate multiplication by 1000; 17,000 would be represented using such notation.
