10,001 (ten thousand [and] one) is the composite natural number following 10,000 and preceding 10,002.[1]

In number theory

[edit]

It is an odd palindromic number.[2][1] It's square is also a palindromic number.[3] Similar to a palindrome, it is also a strobogrammatic number.[4]

Base 10 is the smallest base where it is palindromic. It only has the digits 0 and 1, which means it can be interpreted as a binary number read in base 10.[5]

Its prime factorization is 73 × 137. Compare it to the prime number 101, 1001 equals to 7 × 11 × 13, and 100,001 equals to 11 × 9091.[6]

All of its powers below the fifth power (and above negative powers) are also palindromic, and like all numbers of the form 10x + 1 (x is an integer, x > 1), its powers spell out rows of Pascal's triangle, as depicted in the table below (placeholder zeros are depicted in subscript to make numerical sections corresponding to Pascal's triangle more noticeable).[7][8]

Multiplication trick

[edit]

10001 can be used as a trick in multiplication, as entering any 4-digit number twice is the equivalent as multiplying it by 10001.[9]

As for example using 1234:

The 8-digit number is divisible by the original 4-digit number and by 10001,[9] and 10001 can be divided into the prime factorization, 73 × 137.[10] This can be expressed more clearly in a factor tree:[9]

   12341234
     /  \
    /    \
   /      \
 1234    10001
          / \
         /   \
        /     \
       73     137

Because of this, Any 8-digit number that has repeated 4-digit numbers will always be divisible by the original 4-digit number, 137 and 73.[10][9]
