To count to 1 trillion, one number a second, it would take 31,688 years!

One day my little ass will rep 285 on that bench

Got nothing else to do for the next 100,000 years...

(I know absolutely nothing about cricket, but i assume this is impressive)

287

287 = 7·41, sum of three consecutive primes (89 + 97 + 101), sum of five consecutive primes (47 + 53 + 59 + 61 + 67), sum of nine consecutive primes (17 + 19 + 23 + 29 + 31 + 37 + 41 + 43 + 47), Kynea number, pentagonal number, also shorthand for the Intel math coprocessor to the 80286

288

288 is a pentagonal pyramidal number, is 4 superfactorial since 288 = 1!·2!·3!·4!

288 is an untouchable number, a Harshad number in base 10 and base 12, an Achilles number, a 3-smooth number and a self number.

Both 288 and 289 are powerful numbers.

288 is sum of the sequence of integers 1..4 to the second tetration (i.e. {\displaystyle 288=\sum _{k=1}^{4}{(k[4]2)}}

, where {\displaystyle a[n]b}

is the hyperoperation) since 288 = 1 + 4 + 27 + 256 = 11 + 22 + 33 + 44.

288 is the number of labelled pointed rooted trees (vertebrates) with up to 4 nodes, the number of maximal directed Pseudoforests on up to 4 vertices, the number of Endofunctions for all sets with ≤ 4 points, and is two dozen sets of a dozen, thus being two gross and being 200 in base 12, often told as a pun in maths classes.

288 Holy Sparks

Spoiler

• 
  Isaac Luria teaches that there are 288 fallen sparks. This is derived from the line in Genesis 1:2, "and the Spirit of God moved upon (merachefet) the face of the waters."
  
  "And the earth was without form (תהו tohu), and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the spirit of God moved upon (מרחפת merachefet) the face of the waters." Gen 1:2
  
  The Hebrew word merachefet, or "moved upon" (מרחפת) is the eighteenth word in the Torah, and with a gematria value of 728 is the first word that's a multiple of 26, which is the gematria value of the Tetragrammaton (יהוה). The Ari explains that the word "merachefet" is actually a compound of two words: "met" and "rachaph" - the first and last letters - מ ת - spell met ("death"); the remaining letters - ר ח פ -spell rachaph ("move") which has a gematria value of 288. This is also the value of the word ibbur (ע י ב ו ר) which means "gestation". So, death and rebirth are all represented in the opening to Genesis, signifying that 288 fragments ("rachaph") had died ("met") - an allusion to the shattering of the vessels of tohu into 288 initial sparks.
  • using standard gematria, the product of the 28 letters from Genesis 1:1 = 288³ x 10²⁷
    
  • Earth's average surface temperature = 288˚ K
  
  The number 288 also figures prominently in Pythagorean geometry. This can be seen by comparing the first two primitive Pythagorean triples:
  
  
  
  
  
  The two 3:4:5 Pythagorean triangles featuring the isopsephia of Jesus also reveal the number 288:
  • φ(888) = 288
  • φ(1110) = 288
  • φ(1184) = 2 x 288
  • φ(1480) = 2 x 288
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  A 3:4:5 Pythagorean triangle featuring a side length of 288 is of particular interest, revealing an abundance of familiar biblical gematria numbers:
  
  
  
  • 288 = φ(888)
  • 216 = φ(666)
  • φ(288) = φ(360)
  • perimeter = 432 x 2 = 288 x 3
  • area = 108 x 288 = 144 x 216 = 72 x 432
  • 360 - 288 = 288 - 216 = 72
    
  • φ(432) = 144
  • φ(216) = 72
  Notice how each side of this triangle reduces to 9:
  • 3 + 6 + 0 = 9
  • 2 + 8 + 8 = 18, and 1 + 8 = 9
  • 2 + 1 + 6 = 9
  
  That 288 is the totient function of 888 (the isopsephia value of Jesus) leads us to another Pythagorean triangle that features those two numbers:
  
  
  • φ(888) = 288
  • perimeter = 2016
  • 2 + 0 + 1 + 6 = 9
  • area = 108 x 1120 = 120960
  • 1 + 2 + 0 + 9 + 6 + 0 = 18, and 1 + 8 = 9
  • φ(888) + φ(288) + φ(840) = φ(1480) = 576
  • 5 + 7 + 6 = 18, and 1 + 8 = 9
  • 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 4 + 0 + 2 + 8 + 8 = 54, and 5 + 4 = 9

Gematria value of khnum is 288 - English, Hebrew and Simple Gematria Calculator Values
Khnum - Wikipedia
Elephantine papyri - Wikipedia

The Jews had their own temple to Yahweh[5] which functioned alongside that of the Egyptian god Khnum. Along with Yahweh, other deities – ʿAnat Betel and Asham Bethel – seem to have been worshiped by these Jews, evincing polytheistic beliefs.[6]

Bible Gateway passage: John 15 - King James Version

 

[Koichos]

289 is the number of 'absolute' hapax legomena found in T'nach. An 'absolute' hapax legomenon is a word where even the root(!) is a hapax legomenon.

[Koichos]

Of the fourteen possible permutations in the Hebrew calendar, seven relate to the common year and seven relate to the leap year. In a year where one of the following four permutations occurs (זח״א, הש״א, הכ״ז, בש״ה), there are 293 days that are neither שַׁבָּת shabboth nor יוֹם טוֹב‎ yom ṭov for Jews living 'abroad'—that is to say, those in חוּץ לָאָרֶץ ḥuṣ loʾorăṣ.

1. The first letter represents the day of the week that רֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה Rosh Hashonoh begins (ב = yom shéni, ה = yom ḥamishi, ז = shabboth).
2. The second letter tells you whether the months מַרְחֶשְׁוָן Marḥăshwon and כִּסְלֵו Kisléw each have 29 days; this is represented by the letter ח ḥeth for חָסֵר ḥosér (deficient). If מַרְחֶשְׁוָן Marḥăshwon has 29 days but כִּסְלֵו Kisléw has 30 days, this is called כְּסִדְרָן k'sidhron (regular) and represented by the letter כ kaf. However, if מַרְחֶשְׁוָן Marḥăshwon and כִּסְלֵו Kisléw each have 30 days then it is known as שְׁלֵמָה sh'lémoh (full) and represented by the letter ש shin.
3. The third letter represents the day of the week that פֶּסַח Păssaḥ begins (א = yom rishon, ה = yom ḥamishi, ז = shabboth).
