8299

8299 is a natural number that follows 8298 and precedes 8300. In mathematics, it is an odd composite number.

The prime factorization of 8299 is 43 × 193, where both 43 and 193 are prime. Consequently, 8299 is a semiprime, a product of exactly two primes. Its divisors are 1, 43, 193, and 8299.

In terms of basic properties, 8299 is not a palindrome in decimal notation. The sum of its digits is 28, so it is not divisible by 3. It is congruent to 3 modulo 4, since 8299 mod 4 equals 3. Its square root is approximately 91.1, meaning it lies between the squares of 91 and 92.

Because it is a small semiprime, 8299 does not have notable practical applications in areas such as cryptography, where larger semiprimes are typically used. However, it serves as a straightforward example of a number that factors into exactly two primes, illustrating basic concepts in factorization and number theory.
