Watch what happens when you add the digits of 666 together:

666 --> 6 + 6 + 6 = 18 --> 1 + 8 = 9

Now let's reduce 666 to its prime factors:

666 = 111 x 6 = 37 x 3 x 6 = 37 x 3 x 3 x 2

Let's add the digits of these prime factors and see what happens:

3 + 7 + 3 + 3 + 2 = 18 --> 1 + 8 = 9

You'll find that if you play around with the number 6, that it has an interesting relationship with the number 9.

6 + 9 = 15 --> 1 + 5 = 6

6 x 9 = 54 --> 5 + 4 = 9

See what happens when you multiply 6 by itself:

6 x 6 = 36 --> 3 + 6 = 9

6 x 6 x 6 = 216 --> 2 + 1 + 6 = 9

6 x 6 x 6 x 6 = 1296 --> 1 + 2 + 9 + 6 = 18 --> 1 + 8 = 9

6 x 6 x 6 x 6 x 6 = 7,776 --> 7 + 7 + 7 + 6 = 27 --> 2 + 7 = 9

The last digit of each product you'll notice is 6, and the sum of the digits of the products is always 9. Also, when you multiply any even number by 6, the last digits of that number and its product will be the same:

12 x 6 = 72

24 x 6 = 144

54 x 6 = 324

38 x 6 = 228

There are 24 hours in a day, 60 minutes in an hour, 60 seconds in a day.

2 + 4 = 6, 6 + 0 = 6, 6 + 0 = 6

6, 6, 6

6 + 6 + 6 = 18 --> 1 + 8 = 9

There are 24 x 60 x 60 seconds in a day. That is 86,400 seconds. If you add those digits together, you get:

8 + 6 + 4 + 0 + 0 = 18 --> 1 + 8 = 9

Any number whose digits add up to 6, multiplied by 6 will result in a product that has a digit sum of 9:

15 x 6 = 90 --> 9 + 0 = 9

24 x 6 = 144 --> 1 + 4 + 4 = 9

33 x 6 = 198 --> 1 + 9 + 8 = 18 --> 1 + 8 = 9

42 x 6 = 252 --> 2 + 5 + 2 = 9

51 x 6 = 306 --> 3 + 0 + 6 = 9

141 x 6 = 846 --> 8 + 4 + 6 = 18 --> 1 + 8 = 9

186 x 6 = 1,116 --> 1 + 1 + 1 + 6 = 9

I found this interesting. What do you think? Do you have any fun facts about numbers/numerology to share?

    Just this: if you play around with ANY number long enough, you find little curiosities like this.  It doesn't prove a thing.
