Mathematically 89

Eighty Nine (89)

1. It is a Fibonacci prime number.
1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89…

2. The inverse of 89 gives a fraction with a sequence of 44 recurring digits.
1/89 = 0. 01123595505617977528089887640449438202247191…
The best part of the result is that this number is the sum of the sequence of number from the Fibonacci series where by each number moves a decimal point to the right.
0.01 + 0.001 + 0.0002 + 0.00003 +0.000005 +0.0000008 +0.00000013 +0.000000021 + 0.0000000034 +…=0.011235955---
