8318

8318 is a positive integer that sits between 8317 and 8319. It is an even and composite number.

In mathematics, the prime factorization of 8318 is 2 × 4159, with 4159 being prime. This means 8318 is not a prime, nor a perfect square or cube. The sum of its decimal digits is 8 + 3 + 1 + 8 = 20, so it is not a Harshad number in base 10. The number is congruent to 2 modulo 3 and also 2 modulo 4. In base representations, 8318 equals 0x207E in hexadecimal and 10000001111110 in binary.

In common base conversions, 8318 illustrates how a number can be expressed with a small set of digits in hex yet expand into a longer binary form. The hexadecimal form 0x207E is often used in computer-related contexts, where it can correspond to a particular 16-bit word pattern depending on endianness.

There is no widely recognized special significance attached to 8318 in mathematics or science. Like many integers, it primarily serves as an example of an even, composite number with a large odd prime factor, and it appears in calculations, enumerations, and base-conversion demonstrations rather than as a distinctive named object.
