Mathematically 86

Eighty Six (86)
1. It is the largest known n for which 2^n contains no zeros.
2^86 = 77, 371,252,455,336,267,181,195,264

2. It is the sum of 4 consecutive squares.
86 = 3^2 + 4^2 + 5^2 + 6^2

3. It is a member of a Padovan sequence. It is similar to Fibonacci sequence. The sequence runs from 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 12, 16 ,21, 28, 37, 49, 65, 86 …
The Padovan sequence is --A0 = 0; A1 = 1; A2 = 1; AN+1 = AN-1 + AN-2.

4. It is the total number of parts in all partitions of 8.

5. An ancient tablet was discovered with 86 notches on it. This tablet may also be a pregnancy calendar designed to estimate when a pregnant woman will give birth. This tablet is 32400 years old found in 1979 in Germany. On one side of the tablet is the man like being with his legs apart and arms raised. Between his legs hangs what could be a sword and his waist in narrow. His left leg is shorter than his right one. It is the number of days that must be subtracted from a year to equal the average number of days of a human gestation. It gives the roughly estimation that a child is born after 9 months.
365 – 86 = 279 = 9 x 30 + 9

6. It is a repeated digit on base 6.
86 = (222)6

7. It  is the sum of four consecutive integers.
 86= 20 + 21 + 22 + 23
