24 (twenty-four) is the natural number following 23 and preceding 25. The SI prefix for 1024 is yotta (Y), and for 10−24 (i.e., the reciprocal of 1024) yocto (y). These numbers are the largest and smallest number to receive an SI prefix to date. In mathematics 24 is an even composite number, with 2 and 3 as its distinct prime factors. It is the first number of the form 2''q'', where ''q'' is an odd prime. It is the smallest number with exactly eight positive divisors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24; thus, it is a highly composite number, having more divisors than any smaller number. Furthermore, it is an abundant number, since the sum of its proper divisors ( 36) is greater than itself, as well as a superabundant number.
