9734

9734 is a natural number that comes after 9733 and before 9735. In mathematics it is an even composite number.

Its prime factorization is 9734 = 2 × 31 × 157, making the number square-free and yielding eight positive divisors: 1, 2, 31, 62, 157, 314, 4867, and 9734. It is not a prime, not a perfect square, and not a triangular number. The sum of its digits is 23, so it is not divisible by 3. It is congruent to 5 modulo 9 and to 10 modulo 11.

Numeral representations and bases: in binary it is 10011000000110; in hexadecimal it is 0x2606; in octal it is 23006.

In broader contexts, 9734 serves as an example of an even, square-free composite number with three distinct prime factors. Its factorization into small primes (2, 31, and 157) makes it a convenient illustration in discussions of divisor counts, modular arithmetic, and base conversions. While it does not hold notable special status in most standard number-theory catalogs, its complete factorization and multiple base representations provide a compact reference for classroom or problem-solving use.
