Can you tell me how the number twenty-eight (28) is in everyday life? Or in other words where can you find it in everyday life?
thank you!
i don't need a website just give me an idea...
thanks!
Look at the calendar.
help..
I got that already but thanks anyways..
Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Here are some things with 28:
1. Every month in the calendar will have 28 days, even February when it is short!
2. The number of letters in the Danish, Swedish (not counting "w"), Arabic and Esperanto alphabets
3. In neo-Nazi circles the 2nd letter = B and the eigth = H, which stand for "Blood & Honour."
4. It is the number of dominoes in a standard set of dominoes.
5. It is the postal code of the province of Madrid, Spain.
6. It is a popular game played in India.
7. It is the sum of the first 5 prime numbers.
28 is also a perfect number, i.e. it's the sum of all its proper positive divisors:
28 = 1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14
I so wish you posted your original question at 6:43 rather than 6:44.
Because it would have been May 15, 2007 at 6:43
And 1+5 +2+0+0+7+ 6+4+3 = 28
Yeah...my mind does notice those things are a possibility quickly. Unfortunately, the post was a minute off.
In everyday life, the number twenty-eight (28) can be found in various contexts. Here are a few examples:
1. Calendar: Every month has at least 28 days, even February in non-leap years.
2. Language: Some alphabets, such as the Danish, Swedish (excluding "w"), Arabic, and Esperanto alphabets, have 28 letters each.
3. Cultural significance: In neo-Nazi circles, the second letter is associated with "B" and the eighth letter with "H," representing "Blood & Honour."
4. Games: A standard set of dominoes contains 28 pieces.
5. Geography: The postal code for the province of Madrid in Spain is 28.
6. Sports: 28 is a popular game played in India.
7. Mathematics: 28 is a perfect number as it is equal to the sum of its positive divisors (1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14).
Additionally, it's interesting to note that the number 28 could have had a unique significance if your original question had been asked at 6:43, as the digits in the date and time would add up to 28 (1+5+2+0+0+7+6+4+3). However, since your question was posted at 6:44, this particular significance does not apply.
