'''124''' is the sum of eight consecutive primes (5 + 7 + 11 + 13 + 17 + 19 + 23 + 29). It is a [[nontotient]] since there is no integer with 124 coprimes below it.

124 (one hundred [and] twenty-four) is the natural number following 123 and preceding 125.

In mathematics

[edit]
124 magnetic balls arranged into the shape of a stella octangula

124 is an untouchable number, meaning that it is not the sum of proper divisors of any positive number.[1]

It is a stella octangula number, the number of spheres packed in the shape of a stellated octahedron.[2] It is also an icosahedral number.[3]

There are 124 different polygons of length 12 formed by edges of the integer lattice, counting two polygons as the same only when one is a translated copy of the other.[4]

124 is a perfectly partitioned number, meaning that it divides the number of partitions of 124. It is the first number to do so after 1, 2, and 3.[5]

In science

[edit]

124 is the atomic number of unbiquadium, a hypothetical superactinide element.
