70 (seventy) is the natural number following 69 and preceding 71. In mathematics 70 is: * a sphenic number because it factors as 3 distinct primes. * a Pell number. * the seventh pentagonal number. * the fourth tridecagonal number. * the fifth pentatope number. * the number of ways to choose 4 objects out of 8 if order does not matter. This makes it a central binomial coefficient. * the smallest weird number, a natural number that is abundant but not semiperfect. * a palindromic number in bases 9 (779), 13 (5513) and 34 (2234). * a Harshad number in bases 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15 and 16. * an Erdős–Woods number, since it is possible to find sequences of 70 consecutive integers such that each inner member shares a factor with either the first or the last member. The sum of the first 24 squares starting from 1 is 70 = 4900, i.e. a square pyramidal number. This is the only non trivial solution to the cannonball problem and relates 70 to the Leech lattice and thus st ...
