In mathematics *Forty is a composite number, a refactorable number, an octagonal number, and—as the sum of the first four pentagonal numbers: 1 + 5 + 12 + 22 =40—it is a pentagonal pyramidal number. Adding up some subsets of its divisors (e.g., 1, 4, 5, 10, and 20) gives 40; hence, 40 is a semiperfect number. *Given 40, the Mertens function returns 0. 40 is the smallest number with exactly nine solutions to the equation Euler's totient function \varphi (x)=n. *Forty is the number of -queens problem solutions for n=7. *Forty is a repdigit in ternary (1111, ''i.e.'', 3^ + 3^ + 3^ + 3^, or, in other words, \frac ) and a Harshad number in decimal.
