6239

6239 is a natural number that follows 6238 and precedes 6240. In mathematics, it is a semiprime because it can be factored into the product of two primes: 17 and 367. Therefore its positive divisors are 1, 17, 367, and 6239. The number is odd and not prime, nor a power of any smaller integer.

Representations: In base-2 (binary), 6239 equals 1100001011111. In base-8 (octal), it is 14137. In base-16 (hexadecimal), it is 0x185F.

Significance: 6239 is sometimes cited as an example of a semiprime in introductory number theory and cryptography discussions, illustrating a number with exactly two distinct prime factors. It does not correspond to a widely recognized constant, historical year, or named object in common contexts.

Conclusion: As a small composite integer, 6239 demonstrates basic factorization properties and multiple numeral representations, making it a convenient reference in arithmetic examples.
