727

This number is a prime.

+ The Boeing 727 became the first three-engine jet built for commercial service.

+ 727 = 1! + (1 + 2)! + (1 + 2 + 3)!. [Van Doorn]

+ The smallest odd prime that can be represented as the sum of a cube and its reversal (512 + 215). [Gupta]

+ The first prime whose square (528529) can be represented as the concatenation of two consecutive numbers. [De Geest]

+ The smallest three-digit palindromic prime that is changed into a composite number if any digit is deleted. I.e. 27, 77, and 72 are all composite. [Poo Sung]

+ Probably the only palindromic prime that can be expressed by the form n!+(n+1). [Silva]

+ 727 starts the first chain of four palindromic primes, each formed from the previous one in forward and reverse order: 727, 72727, 727272727, 72727272727272727. [Silva]

+ The sum of the first five three-digit primes with midlle digit zero. [Silva]

+ The start in the first case of a chain of eight successive primes whose reversals are all primes. [Loungrides]

+ The smallest prime-digit prime that can be represented as the sum of a number and its reversal in three different ways (116+611, 215+512, 314+413). [Loungrides]

+ Sputnik 727 is one of two versions of the Sputnik rocket. [Popovich]

+ π(x) > li(x) somewhere near e727.

+ Between 2 and 313 and between 317 and 733 there are 65 primes, and (313-2) + (733-317) = 727. Between 2 and 317 and between 331 and 743 there are 66 primes; (317-2) + (743-331) = 727. Can there be more than two terms like 65 and 66 to find a prime? [Bergot]

+ The smallest multidigit palindromic self prime. [Gupta]

+ The roof height (in feet) of the Renaissance Center in Detroit, Michigan. [Frankovich]
