1873 is prime.

1873 = 28[sup]2[/sup]+33[sup]2[/sup]

You can arrange 12 3x3 LEGOs exactly 1873 different ways to build a contiguous structure that is symmetric when rotated by 90 degrees. ([url=http://www.research.att.com/~njas/sequences/A123834]reference[/url])

1667 is prime.
667 is prime.
67 is prime.
7 is prime.
(OK, I lied about one of them!)

It appears in lots of integer sequences, but what do [I]you [/I]think is cool about 1667?

I'm probably missing the point here, but i don't think lego do a 3x3 brick. ( I could be wrong; I've just read that they do do a 1x14 that i've never seen )

There weren't any pictures at the end of that link, unfortunately.

I rounded a little :blush:

5!+6!+1! = 29^2

Much more interesting, however, is that 561 is the smallest Carmichael number.

You're right, that's beside the point.

IIRC, the standard height is 3 times the height of the flat bricks, so a 1x3 brick of standard height can be decomposed in 3x3 "elementary" (flat) 1x1 bricks.


All times are UTC. The time now is 05:15.
