6189

6189 is the natural number that follows 6188 and precedes 6190. In mathematics, it is an odd composite number. Its prime factorization is 3 × 2063, with 2063 being prime, so 6189 is not prime, a perfect square, or a cube. The sum of its digits is 24, which makes 6189 divisible by 3 but not by 9. It is congruent to 1 modulo 4 and 1 modulo 7, and it is 6 modulo 9. The number is not a palindrome in base 10.

In number theory, 6189 is often cited as an example of a product of a small prime and a larger prime, illustrating basic factorization properties and the distinction between primes and composites. It is not a Harshad number, since it is not divisible by the sum of its digits (24).

In astronomy and related fields, numbers like 6189 are used as numerical designations for minor planets in the catalog of small Solar System bodies. Such designations record the order in which an object’s orbit was confirmed, and may be accompanied by a separate proper name if assigned.

Overall, 6189 is primarily referenced as a composite integer with the factorization 3 × 2063, and as part of cataloging systems where sequential numbers identify distinct objects.
