In Set theory, an ordinal number, or just ordinal, is the Order type of a Well-ordered set. A numeral system (or system of numeration) is a Mathematical notation for representing numbers of a given set by symbols in a consistent manner Sexagesimal ( base-sixty) is a Numeral system with sixty as the base. In Mathematics, factorization ( also factorisation in British English) or factoring is the decomposition of an object (for In Mathematics, a divisor of an Integer n, also called a factor of n, is an integer which evenly divides n without Roman numerals are a Numeral system originating in ancient Rome, adapted from Etruscan numerals. The binary numeral system, or base-2 number system, is a Numeral system that represents numeric values using two symbols usually 0 and 1.

A highly composite number ( HCN) is a positive Integer with more Divisors than any smaller positive integer Because 60 is the sum of its unitary divisors (excluding itself), it is a unitary perfect number. A unitary perfect number is an Integer which is the sum of its positive proper Unitary divisors not including the number itself Being ten times a perfect number, 60 is a semiperfect number. In Mathematics, a semiperfect number or pseudoperfect number is a Natural number n that is equal to the sum of all or some of its Proper
