√100 facts about 100

Hi,
This is my first post on this blog, and to celebrate this occasion, I would like to do something special. As it is the 100th day of the year, April 10 2018 (just keep in mind that if it is a leap year, the 100th day of the year will be on April 9), I would like to give you √100 facts about 100. So, here we go:

√1. In binary, 100 is 1100100, and in hexadecimal, it is 64.

√4. 100! ends with 24 zeros.

√9. The 100th most populated country in the world is Bulgaria (as of 2014).

√16. 1³ + 2³ + 3³ + 4³ = 100

√25. In Old Norse, the word hundrad, from which our ‘hundred’ derives, originally meant 120.

√36. In Belgium, 100 is the ambulance and firefighter telephone number

√49. 1 followed by 100 zeros is called a 'googol' and 1 followed by 1 googol zeros is called a 'googolplex'.

√64. 100 is the sum of the first 10 odd numbers.

√81. A sneeze travels at about 100 miles/hour (160.93 km/h).

Ok. I hope you enjoyed these ten facts about 100, and I look forward to posting more on the blog soon.

Yours in numbers,
Noah
