64 (number) 64 (number) 64 (sixty-four) is the natural number following 63 and preceding 65. Sixty-four is the square of 8, the cube of 4, and the sixth power of 2. It is the smallest number with exactly seven divisors. It is the lowest positive power of two that is adjacent to neither a Mersenne prime nor a Fermat prime. 64 is the sum of Euler's totient function for the first fourteen integers. It is also a dodecagonal number and a centered triangular number. 64 is also the first whole number that is both a perfect square and a perfect cube. Since
Cube root be −2, , or . This is related with the concept of monodromy: if one follows by continuity the function "cube root" along a closed path around zero, after a turn the value of the cube root is multiplied (or divided) by formula_10 Cube roots arise in the problem of finding an angle whose measure is one third that of a given angle (angle trisection) and in the problem of finding the edge of a cube whose volume is twice that of a cube with a given edge (doubling the cube). In 1837 Pierre Wantzel proved that neither of these
