109 (one hundred [and] nine) is the natural number following 108 and preceding 110.
In mathematics[edit]
109 is the 29th prime number. As 29 is itself prime, 109 is a super-prime.[1] The previous prime is 107, making them both twin primes.[2] 109 is a centered triangular number.[3]
There are exactly 109 different families of subsets of a three-element set whose union includes all three elements,[4] 109 different loops (invertible but not necessarily associative binary operations with an identity) on six elements, [5] and 109 squares on an infinite chessboard that can be reached by a knight within three moves.[6]
In other fields[edit]
- 109 is the atomic number of meitnerium.[7]
- The diameter of the sun is about 109.1 to 109.5 the diameter of the earth.
