• a ménage number.^[2]
• palindromic in bases 3 (2222₃), 6 (212₆), 9 (88₉), 15 (55₁₅), 19 (44₁₉) and 39 (22₃₉).

• the sum of the first 4 twin prime pairs ((3 + 5) + (5 + 7) + (11 + 13) + (17 + 19)).

The Pareto principle (also known as the 80-20 rule) states that, for many events, roughly 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes.^[3][4]
