Why is 1729 called Ramanujan number?

Ramanujan said that it was not. 1729, the Hardy-Ramanujan Number, is the smallest number which can be expressed as the sum of two different cubes in two different ways. 1729 is the sum of the cubes of 10 and 9 – cube of 10 is 1000 and cube of 9 is 729; adding the two numbers results in 1729.

What is Ramanujan best known for?

An intuitive mathematical genius, Ramanujan’s discoveries have influenced several areas of mathematics, but he is probably most famous for his contributions to number theory and infinite series , among them fascinating formulas ( pdf ) that can be used to calculate digits of pi in unusual ways.

Why is 1729 a magic number?

It is 1729. Discovered by mathemagician Srinivas Ramanujan, 1729 is said to be the magic number because it is the sole number which can be expressed as the sum of the cubes of two different sets of numbers. Ramanujan’s conclusions are summed up as under: 1) 10 3 + 9 3 = 1729 and 2) 12 3 + 1 3 = 1729.

How did Ramanujan died?

In 1917 Ramanujan had contracted tuberculosis, but his condition improved sufficiently for him to return to India in 1919. He died the following year, generally unknown to the world at large but recognized by mathematicians as a phenomenal genius, without peer since Leonhard Euler (1707–83) and Carl Jacobi (1804–51).

Why is 6174 a magic number?

6174 is known as Kaprekar’s constant after the Indian mathematician D. R. Kaprekar. This number is renowned for the following rule: Take any four- digit number, using at least two different digits (leading zeros are allowed).
